Land Art personal project consisting in a disposition of some carobs forming the symbol "@".
It's actually a parody, involving two portuguese words which are very similar to one another: carob stands for "alfarroba", while "@" it's pronounced "arroba". The total weight used for its production was roughly 15 kg, which equals to 1 portuguese "arroba", an ancient measure.
Carobs are quite common in southern Portugal, where this work was made - so we can assume that it's balanced with the surrounding landscape.
