Abstract

The intention is to show, from the audio-poem “Águas de Kalunga”, written by Conceição Evaristo and performed by the Brazilian actress, poet and journalist, Elisa Lucinda, how the poem engenders atmospheres, narrative performances and a poetics capable of awakening various experiments and stimuli in the reader. In this way, evidencing innumerable times, realities, intersubjective perspectives, and even crises, traumas, political-social, cultural and symbolic conflicts. For that, we will resort to theoretical contributions that concern the performance character that a literary text itself can express. We will also resort - in order to dialogue with the new and deconstructed theoretical methodologies - to perspectives that make use of a better articulation of the body, its becomings and intersubjectivities, likewise Jota Mombaça tenses his reflections on “anti-colonial justice”, the decolonial turns and the body as manifest.
