A playful recreation of extracts from the works of the painter and poet José de Almada Negreiros, marking the first centenary celebration of his birth. Divided into six parts, all differing in form,and corresponding to the number of texts used,Swk4 shows Almada while he "provokes, without cultural guarantee, defending lust,corruption, the frenzy of our daily existence, and the intensity of certain ways of living."
