00:00I like to remember every day that what we are living
00:05is not a natural process,
00:07but a more phase of a war that has never ceased.
00:18But the impossible is to come,
00:20and the unimaginable is to come.
00:26My name is Emerson.
00:28I am a trans trans non-binary.
00:30I am a native women with garimpeiros.
00:34I live in Manaus for 25 years,
00:37so this city has me formed.
00:40In the moment of political turbulence,
00:42of transformation and social movements
00:45in my internal landscape,
00:47I've been living in Weiria.
00:52When I think about environmental reports
00:54it's because I lived here first,
00:57I'm inspired here,
00:58in the human blockage.
01:00We're protecting ourselves, right?
01:01The periphery is also a forest.
01:11Weiria is a artist,
01:13but I like to understand it
01:15as a person traversed,
01:16by me also being a person traversed,
01:19a person from the periferia,
01:20indigenous, LGBT.
01:22I can't see my work
01:24without a political war,
01:26even a political war,
01:28even a manifesto,
01:29or a denuncia.
01:30Ais que com lágrimas semeiam,
01:33com júbilo colherão.
01:34Eu gosto de entender os grupos sociais
01:38que são perseguidos,
01:39como as plantas que,
01:41sobre um território de violência,
01:42não deixam de viver.
01:45Nós somos parte de uma história
01:48que está em curso há muito tempo
01:50e vai continuar a existir.
01:52Como a natureza.
01:54Nós somos natureza.
02:04E aí
