Shake the pale face, change the skin: performative paths to crossontologies and generations

The notions of wild soul and Amerindian perspectivism formulated by Eduardo Viveiros de Castro establish, by opposition, the contours of the pale face and inspire thoughts and actions to expand hegemonic visions linked to child drama. A narrative from the Nambikwara people, which situates “skin exchange,” encourages the search for actions in this direction with children at a public arts school on performative paths, in addition to guiding associations in transfigurations in different perspectives between the performing arts and shamanism. Generational transitions and the unveiling of the different skins that weave this writing echo the questions raised and performed in the writing.
