Abstract

This paper covers the academic research carried out during my Master’s degree studies (Master in Arts, Culture and Cognition, University of the State of Rio de Janeiro, between 2012 and 2014) about the ceramics of the Mbyá-Guarani people, in two villages located in cities of Niterói and Maricá, Rio de Janeiro. Realizing that these people are now distant from the ceramic art, we sought to revitalize such practice in these environments through collective workshops with the Mbyá children, presenting them with the traditional morphological and pictorial characteristics that ceramics items symbolically expose, in order to develop proper appreciation of their ethnicity before the non indigenous contemporary society.
