Formas de Fazer: Anarchist Heritage

A conversation about the importance of reclaiming the legacies left by distant members of a community for posterity, and about the ongoing work on these legacies through artistic and creative processes. We will explore concepts such as circular community, spiral time, vernacular practice, transgenerational forces, and karmic cycles, with a view to understanding how postcolonial heritage influences our understanding of contemporary issues. Drawing on my artistic work and my experience in the Black diaspora, I intend to reflect on approaches to memory from the intersection where different languages, territories, generations, disciplines, and diasporas meet, to suggest a reflection centered on two themes: narrative and ritual. Narrative as a form of knowledge that allows us to understand, recount, and transmit worldviews, and ritual as a means of transmission and nourishment through practices of self-care, healing, and liberation. — Raquel Lima

Formas de Fazer cycle offers a range of activities running parallel to the performances, with the goal of creating a space for sharing practices, methodologies, and working methods among artists and collectives visiting Theatro Circo.
