 "Transtorno" translates as upset or disorder, as confinement times are difficult times. This is the motto that has driven three Portuguese artists to create a black and white video to picture pandemic lockdown. 

André Tentúgal composed music for piano, created and produced the video, Gisela João gave voice and tune to the poetry lines by Samuel Úria. See the result here.

"Maybe our love relationship with the world was overwhelmed, or even toxic. We were forced to stop and rethink this love. This song is borne out of that idea of transformation and the relationship with the other, to seek peace and reflexion. Made with love, for everyone, for the world", Gisela João wrote on social media, the way the three artists shared their work this past Sunday.

"Because physical confinement can never equal mental confinement", André Tentúgal is back to his piano and with Gisela João and Samuel Úria from the top of his window to the world, shot a 360º video of a deserted and confined city that is, always and nevertheless, alive, intense and inspiring.
