The material, shaped by hand and influenced by the elements, becomes a metaphor for life\u2019s journey itself: that which shapes us, wears us down, and, at the same time, teaches us to rise again. <\/p>\n<p class=\"isSelectedEnd\">The exhibition unfolds as a dialogue between organic forms and geometric compositions, in an exercise in balance where emptiness also serves as a language. Each object emerges as a vessel for stories, preserving physical traces of an intimate and transformative memory. <\/p>\n<p>More than just a collection of ceramic pieces, \u201cTraces of Memory\u201d offers a space for contemplation and reflection, inviting the public to recognize in these objects the imprint of time and experience, and to reconsider how each person constructs\u2014and reconstructs\u2014their own narrative.<\/p>\n<p>\u2022 Dates: May 2 to July 4<\/p>\n<p>\u2022 Hours: 9:00 am \u2013 6:00 pm (Monday through Friday) and 9:00 am \u20131:00 pm (Saturday) &#8211; Closed on Sundays and holidays<\/p>\n<p>Admission is free.<\/p>\n<div id='gallery-1' class='gallery galleryid-16677 gallery-columns-1 gallery-size-full'><figure class='gallery-item'>\n\t\t\t<div class='gallery-icon portrait'>\n\t\t\t\t<a href='https:\/\/loulecriativo.pt\/en\/2026\/04\/27\/ceramics-exhibition-traces-of-memory-by-catarina-goncalves-on-display-at-the-gama-lobo-palace-through-july-4\/550a0567-2\/'><img fetchpriority=\"high\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1708\" height=\"2560\" src=\"https:\/\/loulecriativo.pt\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/04\/550A0567-scaled.jpg\" class=\"attachment-full size-full\" alt=\"\" srcset=\"https:\/\/loulecriativo.pt\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/04\/550A0567-scaled.jpg 1708w, https:\/\/loulecriativo.pt\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/04\/550A0567-200x300.jpg 200w, https:\/\/loulecriativo.pt\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/04\/550A0567-683x1024.jpg 683w, https:\/\/loulecriativo.pt\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/04\/550A0567-768x1151.jpg 768w, https:\/\/loulecriativo.pt\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/04\/550A0567-1025x1536.jpg 1025w, https:\/\/loulecriativo.pt\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/04\/550A0567-1366x2048.jpg 1366w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1708px) 100vw, 1708px\" \/><\/a>\n\t\t\t<\/div><\/figure>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>\u201cTraces of Memory\u201d by Catarina Gon\u00e7alves, opens on April 30 at the Gama Lobo Palace.<br \/>\nThe artist explores clay as a sensitive medium in which memories, silences, and transformations are inscribed.<br \/>\nBetween erosion and geometry, the pieces reveal a dialogue between fragility and permanence.<br \/>\nOn view from May 2 to July 4, the exhibition invites reflection on time and what we leave behind of ourselves in the form of shape.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":10,"featured_media":16615,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_acf_changed":false,"footnotes":""},"class_list":["post-16677","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry"],"acf":[],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO Premium plugin v25.9 (Yoast SEO v26.5) - https:\/\/yoast.com\/wordpress\/plugins\/seo\/ -->\n<title>Ceramics Exhibition \u201cTraces of Memory \u201d by Catarina Gon\u00e7alves, on display at the Gama Lobo Palace through July 4 - Loul\u00e9 Criativo<\/title>\n<meta name=\"robots\" content=\"index, follow, max-snippet:-1, max-image-preview:large, max-video-preview:-1\" \/>\n<link rel=\"canonical\" href=\"https:\/\/loulecriativo.pt\/en\/2026\/04\/27\/ceramics-exhibition-traces-of-memory-by-catarina-goncalves-on-display-at-the-gama-lobo-palace-through-july-4\/\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:locale\" content=\"en_US\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:type\" content=\"article\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:title\" content=\"Ceramics Exhibition \u201cTraces of Memory \u201d by Catarina Gon\u00e7alves, on display at the Gama Lobo Palace through July 4\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:description\" content=\"\u201cTraces of Memory\u201d by Catarina Gon\u00e7alves, opens on April 30 at the Gama Lobo Palace.
