"In this lecture, I would like to address the material-discursive practices of listening and storytelling produced in the artistic manifestations of the Brazilian indigenous, trans*, non-binary, visual artist and biologist ?yra Sodoma. It is about the politics of resistance, regeneration, response-ability and alliance building. According to the artist, the stories of animals, plants and other entities such as rivers, water and soil can be told by learning to listen. As ?yra Sodoma's artistic interventions incorporate an embodied intersectional and dissident gaze, I aim to establish an interdisciplinary dialogue between the knowledge that emerges from this practice and indigenous philosophical approaches. This raises the question of how an embodied intersectionality can enrich Indigenous politics of listening and storytelling."
