EN: Connecting the Dots with BRISA FLOW (dubbed)

Brisa de la Cordillera, a Mapuche artist, is the daughter of Chilean artisans who left the country in 1987 during the Pinochet dictatorship. She grew up in Brazil, in a suburb of Belo Horizonte, in Minas Gerais, where she began her artistic journey. She is a rapper, singer, songwriter, producer, and educator. Her work traces a singular path that spans rap, ancestral chants, jazz, electronic music, and Andean music. She has released three albums: "Newen," "Selvagem como o vento," and "Janequeo." She was the first Indigenous artist to perform at Lollapalooza. We spoke with her during her visit to Portugal, where she participated in FOLIO—the Óbidos International Literary Festival—and where she completed an artist residency organized by the Terra Batida platform, which has been inviting Brazilian Indigenous artists to explore the politics of memory and erasure that permeate the collections held in museums and archives across Portugal. .
