About Me
I am a Brazilian caipira who moved to Germany to study and research. I completed a MA in Anthropology focusing on Latin America, and I am pursuing a PhD at the Bonn Center for Dependency and Slavery Studies. My research explores the becomings of the Kayapó Indigenous people with more-than-humans at the intersection of the arc of deforestation and green belt in Central Brazil. Utilizing multispecies relations as a framework, I illustrate how the Kayapó define and construct themselves through bodily interactions with more-than-humans. How the Kayapó shape, sustain and defy interspecies (asymmetrical) dependencies is key to understanding such interactions and entanglements. I am also keenly interested in the circulation of objects, humans, and animals within contemporary capitalist exchanges from an anti-colonial vantage point.
