Os violentos incêndios de Outubro de 2017 afectaram de forma catastrófica a estrutura agro-pastoril que sustenta a criação da raça ovina Serra da Estrela. Estima-se que se tenham perdido cerca de 10.000 animais, o que representa uma inestimável perda de património genético. Os incêndios destruíram também pastagens, estábulos, salas de ordenha, cercas e outros elementos da estrutura produtiva, afectando dramaticamente a vida dos homens e mulheres que se dedicam à exploração destes animais.


Este pin celebra a cultura dos pastores da Serra da Estrela, que nos dias festivos teimam em manter vivo o costume de enfeitar os seus animais com borlas de lã colorida para assim serem abençoados com saúde e abundância. Com ele esperamos incentivá-los a que perseverem na sua actividade, exprimindo apreço e admiração pelo seu trabalho e tradições seculares e singular contributo para a manutenção de um ecossistema.

Ilustração original de Joana Estrela
Pin rígido esmaltado com fecho em borracha.
4,5cm de diâmetro.

English:

You probably saw it on the news: in the middle of October, raging wildfires destroyed an enormous area of forest and villages in Central Portugal, killing over 40 people and uncountable animals. The region of Serra da Estrela, the mountains where the Serra da Estrela sheep live, was particularly affected. 10 thousand sheep were killed. The fires also destroyed land, factories, facilities and tools (pastures, stables, milking parlors, dairies, etc.), dramatically affecting the livelihood of the men and women whose lives depend on these animals.

This pin celebrates the Serra da Estrela shepherds and their enduring tradition of decorating the horns of their sheep and goats with colorful pompoms on special days.

Art by Joana Estrela.
Brass pin with hard enamel fill and rubber backing
