Sumari:Based on the premise that imagination is a prerequisite for political action, creating images is also a way of making revolt. In this sense, going beyond the iconic paradigm, images themselves become sensitive expressions of the indignation of those who stand up against unjust forms of power. In the Amazon, a region historically constituted as Brazil’s “Other”, old and new colonialist logics combine with national and international dilemmas, creating an atmosphere of constant threat, concrete violence and permanent struggle. In this context, some of the images are precisely at the inflection point between seeing, showing and making sensitive a suffering that arouses indignation. Thus, the images launch themselves into experience as means of expressing the desire for uprisings, as practices of asserting freedom and as gestures of resistance in the face of history.
