The term marginalia refers to notes scribbled by a reader in the margins of a book. Through annotations and drawings, a parallel text is created, closely interacting with the original content. Marginalia vegetal is a audiowalk through the Santos ao Rego area, guided by a set of observations made in the margins of the visited places. The walk is led by the presence of vegetation, focusing on their various forms of existence and cultivation within the city, as well as the stories that sprout between people and plants.
