Design portrays the homeless and their never realized dreams

Two students went out into the streets of Lisbon with a doubt in one hand and a camera in the other. The goal? Ask homeless people what their dreams were. The result of the project is a thought-provoking photographic series showing the life projects of these people.

The series, called "I Dream", shows 10 homeless people always photographed in black and white holding a blackboard where record their never realized dreams. The authorship of the project is student Catarina Fernandes and João Porfirio.

In addition to the photographic series, the project also consisted of lengthy conversations with homeless people, where young people were able to learn the story of a lady who wanted to be a teacher and was abandoned by her daughters; a 22 year old who just wanted to be happy; and foreigners who have been to Portugal in search of a better life, but never found.

Each story has left some dreams never realized in the way, which have now been portrayed through the lens of Catarina and João the form you see below:
