Taming a giant
It all starts under the sea, where giants lie sleeping. Fearless men dare to wake them up to tame them and take them to the beach, where the carcass is placed on a fragile bike. A titanic struggle that only ends when the scales tell them how much they weigh and what they'll gain

About Artist
João Coelho
Human condition has always fascinated me and its study has been a main driver in my work. More than an aesthetic purpose, I intend my photography to arouse feelings, emotions, and convey messages, by telling stories that depict suffering or joy, despair or mutual help, strength or disappointment, or simply resilience in the face of adversity and uncertainty about the future
