de volta ao começo

"DVAC" is the name of this poem and means: Back To The Beginning. Talks about the importance of looking back to know how to deal with the issues we face today. As "Sankofa" which in the Adinkra symbol is represented by the bird that walks forward with the head turned back.

African knowledge is transmitted through orality and, as the thinker from Piauí Antonio Bispo said: Even if they burn writing will not burn orality.

Our ancestors related to each other and to the planet with respect. Today nature gives signs that things are not going well. But even so, in African cosmology we do not work from the perspective of the end, the end is not the end. Every end is a new beginning, it is circularity.

Climate change is an indicator that our behavior as human beings and the way we treat the planet urgently needs to change. There is always the possibility of creating new beginnings.

50% of the sales of these pieces will be donated to the movements that are operating in the South of Bahia after the damage caused by the rains and floods.
