Perhaps this edition of <em>Revista MESA<\/em> might be similarly imagined \u2013 a gathering of multiple bodies and hearts on one ground, mobilizing, shouting, singing \u2013 something that might give us protection and strength in this (im)possible world.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Over the past ten years, <em>MESA <\/em>has structured itself as a hybrid platform\u2014online and in-person\u2014of \u201cpublication\u201d and \u201cpublic action\u201d connecting art and society through an ongoing dynamic of research, experimentation, collaboration, and education. With national and international circulation, <em>MESA <\/em>seeks to bring visibility and critical depth to the multiple interfaces of artistic production in contemporary socioenvironmental contexts, exploring their different formats and situations, and investigating the ethical and aesthetic changes that permeate the fields of art, curation, and education. As a living platform for documentation, collaboration, and reflection, <em>MESA <\/em>mobilizes its continual process of becoming by acting as a &#8220;table&#8221; and social sculpture, bringing together and connecting artists, researchers, institutions, universities, and communities from diverse fields both within and outside Brazil.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>For its seventh edition <em>MESA<\/em> as a thought-form and fabric of care and social justice interweaves with themes of body-ground-heart to become a body-world\/world-body, emphasizing the potential of art as an apparatus of intersectionality, connectivity, and activism in a world marked by fragmentation.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Key to mobilizing this body-world\/world-body has been the introduction of a new editorial approach inviting three resident artists\/co-editors as a means of developing contributions in a more organic, poetic, and singular way. Anchored in these artists&#8217; practices and research, <em>MESA <\/em>became a resident of their projects, accompanying and reinventing itself in dialogue with their creative processes.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Scottish LGBTQIAPN+ filmmaker Susan Thomson works across the boundaries of visual arts, film, and literature. In 2022, she completed a residency at MESA Institute, supported by the British Council&#8217;s Plural Programme, where she researched, developed, and directed the short film <em>Tybyra and the Harlequin<\/em>. A work of docufiction, the film explores the rights of nature together with issues of gender, racism, and colonialism told through dance, poetry, and documentary, featuring performance artist Omb\u00e1 Y\u00ee\u00e0r\u00e1 and cinematography by Guar\u00e1 do Vale and Isabella Moriconi (at the time students at the Federal Fluminense University, arts and film, respectively). The film tells two stories: that of Tybyra, an Indigenous person of non-binary gender, who, in 1613, was tried and convicted by French colonizers in Brazil, and subsequently thrown from a cannon into the sea; and the harlequin frog in Ecuador\u2019s Intag Valley, considered extinct for over thirty years, until its rediscovery in 2016, where its special ecosystem protection status led it to prevent a copper mine project from going ahead. Fiction and reality converge, pointing toward ways to imagine new paths for intersectional activism. <em>Mesa<\/em> includes a poetic and visual essay on the film by Thomson and two specially edited video interviews conducted as part of the research process: Diosmar Filho, an Afro-Brazilian geographer and filmmaker, who discusses the problems of environmental racism together with the research projects of IYALETA: Research, Science and Humanities: \u201cAmaz\u00f4nia Legal Urbana: Sociospatial Analyses of Climate Change&#8221; and &#8220;Inequalities and Climate Change&#8221;; and Mika Peck, a British ecologist and university professor, who discusses various themes of his research and socio-environmental activism, in particular highlighting processes of paraecology\u2014a movement to engage communities in environmental protection.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>For his residency the Brazilian artist and educator Jorge Menna Barreto, currently professor in the Department of Art and the Master\u2019s Program in Environmental Art and Social Practice at the University of California, Santa Cruz, developed the podcast series <em>Olho Seco <\/em>(Dry Eye), an initiative that is part of his ongoing research project, Dehydrated Landguages. Spurred by the artist\u2019s practice and research over the past 20 years focusing on site-specific projectsand agroecology, this investigation explores the relationship between art, literature, and the environmental crisis. Intersecting science, poetry, and visual arts, <em>Olho Seco <\/em>compares the globe of the eye to the globe of the Earth and investigates how the experience of dryness manifests itself in the body and in ecosystems. Through interviews with scientists, writers, artists, and curators and drawing in particular on the work of the Brazilian poet Jo\u00e3o Cabral de Melo Neto and artist Antonio Dias, the podcast speculates on how we might parse &#8220;dryness&#8221; as a language, method, and a response to environmental collapse. The audio of the podcasts and transcripts can be accessed here along with an overview of the research project Dehydrated Landguages and Menna Barreto\u2019s eco-fiction text \u201cOne Mouth Less,\u201d a new essay pointing to future directions for his research.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Meanwhile, the public art collective Grande Companhia Brasileira de Myst\u00e9rios e Novidades (Great Brazilian Company of Mysteries and Novelties) operates in the port area of Rio de Janeiro, formerly the largest slave port in the Americas. The Grande Company develops their processions as social sculptures of public art. Each procession is conceived in dialogue with popular traditions, religious festivities, songs, and Afro-Brazilian syncretism that activate contemporary historical and political intersections, restoring forms of re-enchantment to a territory threatened by increasing gentrification. Through various editorial contributions <em>MESA<\/em> highlights their processional practice and mobilization of organizations, spiritual leaders, researchers, artists, and educators. These include: an interview with artistic director L\u00edgia Veiga and coordinator Mar\u00edlia Felipe; a collection of testimonies with the Company&#8217;s performers and collaborators; and a conversation circle on the arts, sciences, and spiritualities with the Company&#8217;s director and <em>MESA<\/em> editors as well as Anna Dantes, Fabio Scarano, M\u00e3e Sara, Marcia Brand\u00e3o, and Iazana Guizzo. Architect and coordinator of the Floresta Cidade (UFRJ) outreach project and Company collaborator, Guizzo also contributed the essay &#8220;Despertar a Guanabara&#8221; (Awakening Guanabara), photographed by C\u00e9sar Oiticica Filho, filmmaker and artistic director of the H\u00e9lio Oiticica Municipal Art Center and the H\u00e9lio Oiticica Project. The beauty of the Company\u2019s processional practice is highlighted by the entities and deities embodied by the actors on stilts, like suspended giants, as they walk the streets, they bring a symbolic forest to the street, embracing total presence, one that is both fully attentive to the here-and-now and fabulously poetic, activating other states of being.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>In addition to these rich contributions, this <em>Mesa<\/em> edition also features articles, dialogues, and visual essays, offering diverse and richly ecosystemic approaches of body-ground-heartedness in their situated dimensions of resistance and creation. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3>Articles<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>This issue features three articles. Each draws on different transcultural and transdisciplinary eco-ethical-aesthetic practices and critical reflections and points toward possible regenerative confluences of the broken bonds of body-ground-heart. The articles by Ana Luiza Nobre, &#8220;Crouch Designing,\u201d Jo\u00e3o Paulo Lima Barreto (Tukano), &#8220;The Conception of Body Based on the Practices of Indigenous Specialists of the Brazilian Amazon,\u201d and Juan L\u00f3pez Intz\u00edn, &#8220;Sp&#8217;ijilal O&#8217;tan: Knowledge or Epistemologies of the Heart,&#8221; constitute a call for other ontoepistemologies\u2014cosmologies<strong>.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Mayan-born researcher Juan L\u00f3pez Intz\u00edn focuses on the Tselta Mayan ethical and philosophical concepts that shape the epistemologies of the heart<strong>. <\/strong>Both poetic invitation and questioning manifesto, his text asks us to consider: if we are a domesticated people is &#8220;de-domestication&#8221; possible? He draws our attention to the notion of <em>ch\u2019ulel<\/em>, the primary essence of existence\u2014what we might call vital power or energy\u2014reclaimed and embraced by the Zapatista movement in Mexico in the 1990s. An essence that awakens our consciousness and summons us to bring &#8220;our hearts back&#8221; to the forgotten cosmos, enabling the return, in Tselta Mayan terms, of <em>lekil kuxlejal <\/em>(a life of plenitude, dignity, and justice).<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Likewise, Jo\u00e3o Paulo Tukano, in an article excerpted and edited especially for this <em>Mesa<\/em> issue from his book <em>O mundo em mim: uma teoria ind\u00edgena e os cuidados sobre o corpo no Alto Rio Negro <\/em>(2022), also highlights an epistemology of indigenous knowledge. Here, he outlines the healing cures of indigenous healers and shamans and defends their practice as sciences that reconnect the body with the ground-world-cosmos. He presents a phenomenological view of indigenous medicine based on the practices of these cosmopolitical mediators who are operators of: \u201c<em>Kihti uk\u0169se <\/em>(the set of mythical narratives of the Tukanos, <em>(<\/em><em>Yepamahs\u00e3<\/em>); <sup>,<\/sup> <em>Bahsese <\/em>(repertoire of formulas, words and expressions taken from the <em>Kihti uk\u0169se<\/em>);and <em>Bahsamori <\/em>(the set of social practices associated with the <em>bahsese <\/em>and the ritual feasts and ceremonies throughout the annual cycle).\u201d All this is summarized in the term <em>kahtise<\/em>: the immaterial elements that constitute the body.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Architect Ana Luiza Nobre, inspired by Georges Didi-Huberman&#8217;s provocation to &#8220;think from\/lean into the ground,&#8221; explores the possibilities of a different kind of architecture, one that is grounded and &#8220;crouched&#8221; in its sensibilities and projections. A movement that counters the processes of modernization\/globalization established in opposition to everything local, rooted, and grounded. An architecture that embraces, as Indigenous peoples teach, a &#8220;stepping softly&#8221; on the ground. &#8220;Grounding oneself,&#8221; Nobre points out, &#8220;is cultivating a politics of the Earthly,&#8221; where, by leaning towards the ground we can, to quote Huberman, &#8220;make what is below rise to us.&#8221;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3>Dialogues<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Perhaps what most pulsates, connects, and breathes body-ground-heart in this issue is the act of listening, that is, an attentive, sensitive, and ethical listening, anchored in what Donna Haraway suggests as \u201cresponse-ability&#8221;.<strong><sup>1<\/sup><\/strong> One that is also grounded in permission where we ask to listen and be part of what we are listening to \u2013 listening with the body, mind and heart like the word-concept in Guarani <em>hendu <\/em>offered by Sandra Benites in her dialogue \u201c<em>Tembiapo<\/em>: Art and Healing Peoples.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>While this attentive, sensitive, and ethical listening will not save us from our crises nor repay the unpayable debt<strong><sup>2<\/sup><\/strong> of past colonialism, it is, however, fundamental to what the philosopher Isabelle Stengers calls &#8220;an ecology of practices&#8221; and &#8220;the creation of responses on which the possibility of a future that is not barbaric depends.&#8221;<strong><sup>3<\/sup><\/strong> &#8220;I don&#8217;t know how to do justice,&#8221; echoed Stella Patroc\u00ednio&#8217;s voice in the dialogue &#8220;Ensaio de escuta\u201d (Rehearsal\/Essay of Listening) at the former Col\u00f4nia Juliano Moreira asylum, now the Bispo do Rosario Museum. Together with Anna Carolina Vicenti Zacharias, Natasha Felix, and Sara Rumos and mediated by Diana Kolker, we listened to Stella\u2019s <em>falat\u00f3rio<\/em> (chatter).<strong><sup>4 <\/sup><\/strong>\u00a0Stella\u2019s chatter grounds us in both palpable helplessness in relation to an irreparable past and provocation for a future otherwise: we must listen and listen collectively.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Oralitura, as the term conceived by performance scholar Leda Martins&#8217;s poetic work suggests,<strong><sup>5<\/sup><\/strong> emerges from this responsive and collective listening. &#8220;Art as a shell: just listening,&#8221; was how artist and psychiatrist Lula Wanderley described the Brazilian artist\u2019s Lygia Clark&#8217;s hybrid artistic and clinical practice. These sensibilities and potentialities permeate the project Body, Gesture, Affect with women at the Talavera Bruce prison. In the dialogue featured in this issue of <em>MESA<\/em>, project coordinators Tania Rivera and Alice Poppe joined forces with collaborating artist Caroline Valansi and composer, performer, and art professor Tato Taborda. Concepts, words, and practices such as choreolistening (Rivera), radiochoreography (Poppe), swinging body (Valansi), and audionutrition (Taborda) emerge from this collective listening of bodies, grounds, and hearts.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The dialogue &#8220;We are from That Land: Transversal Dialogues Between Art and Territory&#8221; features a conversation between educator\/curator M\u00e9lanie Mozzer and artist Savio Ribeiro as they discuss the vitality and struggles of the art scene in the peripheral context of S\u00e3o Gon\u00e7alo, an outlying suburban region of Rio de Janeiro, based on a recent conference they curated on contemporary art in the region. The territory of S\u00e3o Gon\u00e7alo is dear to <em>Mesa<\/em>; the 6th edition \u201cHidden Lives\u201d features a case study with artists, educators, and activists from the region. Mozzer and Ribeiro similarly emphasize the fundamental importance of listening to the territory and its multiple voices and also point to the vital need for a counter-movement of writing the &#8220;narratives of our own revolutions.&#8221;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>In times of urgency, we need to listen to each other, to the earth, to nature, and to the nonhuman. This isn&#8217;t some kind of return to nature fantasy. Nor is it a cure. But rather, a way to sensitize ourselves to what Susan Buck Morss suggests as &#8220;sniffing out danger.&#8221;<strong><sup>6<\/sup><\/strong>As Indigenous people say that when you see the jaguar in the forest, it&#8217;s already too late.<strong><sup>7<\/sup><\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3><strong>Visual Essays<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Another special feature in this issue comprises four visual essays, each opening a multisensory window onto different contemporary worlds. Here we were interested in exploring resonances, connections, eco-ethical-aesthetic interdependencies, and confluences between body-ground-heart.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>In \u201cOther Poetics: Diving into a Brazil of Art\u201d we journey amidst the vital creativity of popular manifestations of Brazilian art, captured through the lens of artist and filmmaker Lucas Van de Beuque. In his essay, we rediscover the vital imaginaries of the origins of the artistic-human phenomenon \u2013 celebration, home-life, nature \u2013 free from erudite dogma and vibrating body-ground-heart from other margins of contemporary artistic production.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The essay &#8220;What is this Ground on which I Step? Work, Care, and Survival at Casa Resist\u00eancias, a shelter for LBT women in the Mar\u00e9 Favela Complex&#8221; was written by Casa collaborators, Beatriz Virg\u00ednia Gomes Belmiro and Kimberly Veiga and features the photography of Suellen Cloud. The essay was the result of a collaboration between Mesa, Casa Resist\u00eancias and Imagens do Povo \u2013 an organization and school of popular photography in Mar\u00e9 promoting a critical and respectful registering of local culture. Residence here becomes resistance, the Casa\u2019s work involves regenerative vital forces and an ethics of care that embraces affectivity, solidarity, creativity, and communality, and psychosocial constructs of healing through mutual belonging.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Artist Carla Santana&#8217;s essay, &#8220;Land as Memory, Dwelling, and Nourishment: The Sert\u00e3o Negro<strong>,&#8221; <\/strong>engages us with the multiple worlds of earth-soil-ground that she explored during her residency at the artistic cultural center Sert\u00e3o Negro, located in the semiarid region of Brazil\u2019s <em>sert\u00e3o<\/em> in the country\u2019s northwest. Here Santana immersed herself in an exploration of other modes of existence and practices of communion and preservation with nature. During her residency at Sert\u00e3o Negro she drew on the transformative social utopias and cosmopolitical experiences of the Kalunga Quilombola [maroon] Community of Engenho II and the animal worlds built by communities of collective insects such as mound houses, microcosmic bee hives, wasp nests, anthills, and armadillo burrows.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>In synergy with the impulses of \u201cancestral futures\u201d as the indigenous leader Ailton Krenak often voices, trans and neurodivergent artist-researcher Jialu Pombo digs up the ground and returns their body to the earth. In their visual essay \u201cA Nameless Creature Embodying Experience Faces the Earth,\u201d combining photographs, collages and textual reflections that draw on their doctoral thesis (2023), Jialu points to a feeling that these images were \u201ctheprelude to a long process of grounding, which could also be called enrooting.&#8221; Jialu invites us to face and embrace the earthiness of our ground-bodies as a means of provoking &#8220;other perspectives&#8221; and connective relationships &#8220;that have always been present, but that sometimes escape us: the body is water, fire, air and earth.&#8221;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3><strong><em>Think Piece<\/em><\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>We began conceiving and planning for &#8220;Body Ground Heart&#8221; in conversations with M\u00f4nica Hoff in 2022, for which we are extremely grateful. Plans shifted and changed, schedules and deadlines took over. Yet, amidst this ebb and flow of life, it is as if this was all somehow wholly necessary for her <em>Think piece<\/em> to emerge. Hoff\u2019s texts merges inspirations, questions, references, memories, and desires, as a poetic, vibrant, and deeply moving text born from the fusion of the &#8220;episteme&#8221; of body-ground-heart.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>***<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Interweaving these multiple voices and practices of resistance and creation, \u201cBody Ground Heart\u201d invests in <em>acuerpamiento,<\/em><strong><sup>8<\/sup><\/strong>\u00a0cuerpo means body, suggesting bodies joining with other bodies, as feminist Lorena Cabnal advocates in her community-based territorial feminist activism in Guatemala. <sup>\u00a0<\/sup>That is, in seeking the common ground that permeates struggles and embodying themin solidarity.
