Quotes
Art is resistance. It spreads the word about the nation.
conversation in World Literature Today (2019). Translated from Portuguese
The maintenance of one’s maternal language is a political strategy. Language has been a process of resistance since the colonizers arrived…We are losing a lot of languages and cultures. In the process, we lose rituals, we lose identity.
conversation (2019)
Instead of distinct objects—forest, human, bird—our existence is one sole entity, linked in coexistence...this Amazonia is living…It’s not subservient, and it’s not pretty. It’s not the lungs of the planet. And it’s not an infinite place. It’s finite. Tudo acaba.
