In 2004 Portugal hosted the European Football Championship. For the occasion the exhibition Uma Cidade de Futebol [A City of Football] was organised with archival pictures and new works commissioned from contemporary photographers, showing the impact of the sport on Portuguese society and on the Lisbon landscape. (Sobreviver a) Uma Cidade de Futebol [(Surviving) A City of Football] was São Trindade's answer to the media saturation and the multitudes of fans scattered around the capital. Taking the exhibition catalogue on a trip to Goa, she discovered a reality where the sport does not exist and came into contact with other conceptions of time and of the body. The escapism of her trip turned into a retreat. Appropriating the catalogue, she introduced faits divers from local newspapers and intervened on the pictures with colourful oriental symbols that clash with a culture of competition and success, provoking a "civilisational shock" that disarms the mystified vision of the East and perverts the values associated with sport in the West.
