Uirapuru, by Marcelo Evelin, is inspired by the entities that inhabit the forests of Brazil and the imagery of the Brazilian woods. The forest as cosmology, wild and enchanted, a place of return to a deep and unknown interior, and in particular the Uirapuru, the singer of the forest, which means “man transformed into a bird” or “decorated bird” in Tupi-Guarani, the language of the original peoples of Brazil. The imagery surrounding the Uirapuru invokes the forest, which, although exuberant, is threatened, forged in violence and neglect. And also, the indigenous legend, about a mythical bird, almost never seen, with beautiful singing, which brings good luck to those who listen to it – the symbol of a Brazil that, despite being destroyed, still sings… of a beautiful Brazil. And it is the Uirapuru, which in this creation serves as the mediation of a body that evokes sounds, movements and constitutes another sense of humanity, that allows a landscape of bodies that launch themselves into a condition between landing and taking flight, performing life, as movement and gesture and, above all, as sonority and vibratility.
