Alvalade combines a residential atmosphere with a notable presence of local commerce and spaces dedicated to culture and art.
The name UMA LULIK__ has a profound cultural origin and meaning. It comes from the Tetum language, spoken in Timor-Leste.
In this culture, "uma lulik" designates a sacred place. It is traditionally the space intended for keeping objects of spiritual value and the setting for important community gatherings and rites.
This space was conceived with a specific objective within the Lisbon artistic landscape. It dedicated itself to contemporary art, presenting and promoting works by artists from diverse geographical origins.
In particular, its focus was on creators from South America, Africa, the Middle East, and South Asia, seeking to bring these artistic perspectives closer to the Portuguese public and to function as a dissemination platform.
