Resumo:
This is a story of a travesti who dared to dream big. This is how a research project begins,
diving deep, crossing boundaries, and manifesting a counter-colonial stance. I bring an
intimate narrative of an ancestral transition that I affectionately call "bombo-transição." It is a
survival tool that evokes, in this performative writing, the Exu-Travesti as a thought-form
capable of strengthening the Axé of the Trans community that constantly fights to stay alive.
In an exuminist proposal of experimental and poetic methodology, which combines
"escrevivência," auto-ethnography, and an essayistic dissertation, I decentralize the research
from common, academic, scientific, sanitized, linear writing that is structurally mental and
rational, following lines of thought and intersections of citations. As an artist of emergency
critique, I swim against this tide and bring to the center of the debate the trans body that
expresses in its works and attempts that scream "my body also thinks" I express in literary
shares a bit of my wandering journey by bicycle through Brazil, the ancestral genitalist
critique of the masculinization of Exu's phallus, and the living Pombagira who composed and
published 10 songs that are points of spiritual significance, contested in the 2024 elections,
and culminate in the perception of the pact of whiteness experienced within Pós-cultura
during my tumultuous journey as a master's student.
