Maresia is the Portuguese word for the characteristic smell of the sea, which comes mainly from the biochemical decomposition of certain compounds by bacteria.
Maresia looks at the beauty of decomposition, taking pictures of a seaport and letting them rot, producing new landscapes that hide the original one.
