The story
Jardins Efemeros in Viseu
Jardins Efemeros, or Ephemeral Gardens, transforms Viseu's historic center into a series of temporary art and garden installations, pairing contemporary design with the city's old streets and squares. Exact dates for the next edition had not yet been announced as of the source check. Each edition is different, since nothing from a previous year remains once the installations come down.
Some festivals build toward a single loud night; Jardins Efemeros builds toward something quieter and, in its own way, more fragile.
