Abstract

The article discusses the inspirations, research, materials, and creative process of artistan Nádia Taquary. Topics discussed include the death of a loved one that caused Taquary to withdraw from society, her first sculpture which was considered an act of self-care, and on how she creates poetics of relationality between West African heritage, craft, skilled knowledge and its effloresence among Afro-Brazilian artisan-makers.
