Fluvial is a meditation on the riverside and lakeside beaches of northern and central inland Portugal. These are places with which Mouraz has a lifelong relationship and through the images he transmutes personal geography into a fictional atmosphere. These are the informal moments of family life, of Portuguese society, relaxed, and at leisure. Realistic yet dreamlike, Mouraz conveys an almost pagan sense of nature, creating the feeling of an infinite Sunday, a summer dream and a visual ode to human leisure.
