Omágua: a arte, expressão corporal e pintura indígena Kambeba - uma experiência pedagógica em dança para o ensino de arte no município de São Paulo de Olivença – AM

Abstract

This research is part of the research line "Teaching, Learning and Creation Process in Arts" of the Professional Master's Program in Arts – Profartes of the Federal University of Amazonas (UFAM) in partnership with the State University of Amazonas (UEA). It presents a pedagogical proposal for arts education based on an intra-arts creation process called "Omágua," which was inspired by the Kambeba culture, developed in a public school in the municipality of São Paulo de Olivença, in the state of Amazonas, with the objective of understanding how indigenous dance and body painting can contribute to a process of creative arts pedagogies, strengthening the ethnic identity of indigenous students and promoting dialogue between traditional knowledge and formal education. The methodology used was action research and CASA (Passos, 2024), with qualitative approaches, allowing the active participation of the school community, indigenous leaders, and students in the planning and execution of activities, as well as activating a process of self-recognition in the researcher and research participants. The activities involved: experiencing traditional dance led by a Kambeba leader, discussion circles with students, body painting practices, and the production of educational materials inspired by local culture. The results indicate that the inclusion of indigenous cultural practices in daily school life strengthens the sense of belonging, increases student engagement, and contributes to the construction of a curriculum more sensitive to cultural diversity. Furthermore, a positive impact was observed in teacher training, with greater openness to intercultural listening and the valuing of other epistemologies. It is concluded that art, when understood as an expression of identities and resistance, has the potential to transform the school into a space of recognition, inclusion, and appreciation of diversity. The reported experience points to paths for an education committed to the rights of indigenous peoples and to the construction of fairer, more creative pedagogical practices rooted in the sociocultural realities of the subjects. Keywords: Dance Education; Intraarts; Intercultural; Kambeba People; Body Painting.
