Abstract

This essay is the result of a collaboration between the artist Shambuyi Wetu, from the Democratic Republic of Congo, and us anthropologists. In his chimeras Shambuyi materialises alternative identities for the African migrant and refugee in Brazil. Through his critical utopia, he promotes a narrative that decolonises scarcity, war and suffering.
