The Chicala Observatory

The Chicala Observatory is an archive about the history and urban culture of Chicala’s neighbourhood, its relationship with the city of Luanda and informal settlements in Angola, Africa and the World. We proposed that the craftsmen of Chicala handbroided on the cover, with thread of stitching, using the colors that illustrate your day -to-day – a clear analogy between the gray that outsiders see the life of the neighborhood and the colorful way the local feel their life.
