This article understands art as a process of awareness that opposes the alienation imposed by the post-industrial system. The gaps left by the colonial heritage are filled with the rhythmic strenght of the walk and the enchantment with Afrofuturism to de-stereotype Africa and Brazil as places of precariousness. This text dreams of a world without borders, in which the enslaved identitarian subjections pulverize in the air.
Descriptions of the author’s stay in South Africa, illuminated by works by artists such as Sean O’Toole, Superflex, Sun Ra and Octavia Butler, reflect on the importance of decolonization practices and re-reading of migratory flows.
