Shownotes
The manatee is seen by many eyes, and sang my many voices. Here we listen to Tupi original language (from Brazil) in the dancing sounds of an indigenous poet, and read the Portuguese words. The tongues of the natural world are more than words, they are a construction understood by us all.
Peixe boi Manati / Quero nadar com você / Em nosso ambiente / No território dos Potiguara / Não fuja jamais / Desse manguezal Manati / Quero coexistir com você / ... / Goaragoá manati.
Poem by José Romildo Araújo da Silva Potiguara
Text & Curation by Cristina Brito. Cover by Rui Henriques.
