Filhos da Terra: scripts to enter Brazil deep

Sons and Daughters of the Land: Diversity and Brazilian Culture is an authorial project, the realization of a desire: to document and show Brazil who the Brazilian people are, as are their celebrations and celebrations. In this sense, the set of photographs that brings us Eraldo Peres is added to a strong line of interpreters who seek our identity in the field of culture, more than that, in a traditional culture that would have formed from three races, the indigenous , Portuguese and African. The liberality of customs and the scarcity of white women would be the source of all gradations of color, of the physiognomic variety observable in the mulattoes, in the Mamelukes, in the cafuzos, and in other ethnic mixtures. In short, the historical process would have crystallized in the phenomenon of miscegenation that is evident not only in the faces but also in the culture that these people hold.

Inspired by the book The Brazilian People, by Professor Darcy Ribeiro, the project establishes its work guidelines based on cultural routes - Atlantic Coast - Crioula Culture; Sertões - Sertaneja, Caipira and Gaúcha Culture; Povos da Mata - Cabloca Culture, and Migration Flows - Territories of Cultural Encounters - DF.
