摘要:Normal 0 21 false false false PT-BR X-NONE X-NONE MicrosoftInternetExplorer4 This paper is about knowledge and artifact-producing practices from settlements located in the Amanã Sustainable Development Reserve, in the middle Solimões River, Amazon. When observing artisans’ practices, we focused on gestures and body postures, and their reproduction processes that carry within themselves individual characteristics that are collectivized and reproduced by others. Deliberating on the ideal body posture to weave, mold, and carve is a primordial step in the activity. Through observing, socializing, and practicing social reproduction of knowledge is carried out, and corporal performances are important elements of techniques employed in crafting.
