Corpos em equilíbrio: imagens e cotidiano ribeirinho no Porto do Açaí e na Ilha do Maracujá, Belém (PA)
(2012-09) SILVEIRA, Flávio Leonel Abreu da; BASSALO, Terezinha de Fátima Ribeiro
Based on photographic records, this paper reflects on the ebb and flow of the Maracujá Island dwellers, between the island and Belém, making use of the ways they use their bodies or 'know how to use' them, that Mauss called corporal techniques. Bodies disclosed, since they are always exposed and therefore capable of being visually and ethnographically categorized. Inspired on Certeau, the article seeks to think of the corporal tactics devised by island residents to practice the landscapes of belonging revealing peculiar body expressions in constructing their everyday experiences. Such observations do not refer to a body-object, but to a body that is the subject of culture, as Csordas says, a body that is "the existential basis of culture".
