Resumo(s)
Ethnography-based art practices are opening up alternative possibilities for doing fieldwork, by
involving different senses and deploying assorted strategies and media through practices in which
is used in both the acquisition and the transmission of ethnographic knowledge. In this photo essay
we present “Woundscapes. Suffering, creativity and bare life”, an ethnography-based art exhibition
collaboratively produced by 11 anthropologists and artists from different countries. Woundscapes
reflects the viewpoints of the EBANOCollective setting out to claim the place of ‘art’ with fragments
of ethnography, and the place of ethnography with ‘artistic’ objects, producing an interference in
the established circuits of academia, and at the same time in those of contemporary art. The use of
collaborative and participatory methods and art practices in the acquisition and diffusion of
ethnographic knowledge reflects the dialogical and processual nature of ethnographic mutual
understanding, and at the same time creates a dynamic interchange between memories, dreams,
visions, emotions and anxieties, revealing aspects of social reality which remain invisible – if
observed only through the lens of the social sciences – and mute – if recounted only in the pages of
academic monographs.
