The sun and the sea, which will henceforth serve as the gateway to the city of Matosinhos, at the Exponor roundabout in Leça da Palmeira. The commemorative plaque was unveiled and, immediately afterwards, the metal wave crowned by an arch evocative of the sun began to gush water. Designed by Zulmiro de Carvalho, the work culminates the urban development carried out in that area and is based on a circular platform measuring 26 metres in diameter, made of stainless steel. The installed equipment, which continuously reuses water, enables the sequential execution of various water and light effects, and the sculptural ensemble is also equipped with an anemometric system that adjusts the water jets to the wind speed.
