I-carnival yethu, umzimba wethu, umzabalazo wethu

Ngo-Oktobha 2019 ndadibana nePapangus, kwisixeko saseBezerros ePernambuco, eBrazil. Imaski yepapangu ibe yinxalenye yengcinga yePernambuco ubuncinci inkulungwane kwaye ivuselelwa ngabantu bezitrato ngexesha leCarnival, encediswa sisinxibo esipheleleyo somzimba. Abahlali baseBezerros bathi imaski ibisetyenziswa ngamadoda ukubhiyozela icarnival efihliweyo kubafazi, ukuba banxibe ipapangu kwaye babhiyozele i-incognito. Yaye aphi amabhinqa angamaPangu * kule ngcamango idumileyo? (Bruna Amaro)

I-AS* I-PAPANGUS ngumbhiyozo wecarnival wabafazi* ongayichasanga imizimba ecandekileyo.

Kwi-AS* PAPANGUS, igcisa lase-Afro-Brazil uBruna Amaro wenza umdyarho ngeyona ndlela ingaqhelekanga* yobufazi kunye nedelonial kunye nabafazi abangaphezu kwama-50* eSão Paulo naseBerlin. Ngaphantsi kweemaski zepapangu, iimpawu zobuso ziyanyamalala kwaye umzimba ohlangeneyo uvela. Lo mzimba lithafa ledabi lokusinda, ukuxhathisa kunye nokwakhiwa kwakhona. I-AS* I-PAPANGUS yindibano yamajoni angamabhinqa* ukuze abhiyozele kwaye abeke imbeko kubomi bawo kunye nokusinda kwawo.

Kule projekthi yothatho-nxaxheba, isiseko sala manyathelo alandelayo siya kubekwa kuthotho lweendibano zocweyo zokwenziwa komsebenzi. Ngethuba le-workshop yeentsuku ezimbini e-São Paulo, umculi kunye nabathathi-nxaxheba baya kusebenzisana kunye nokunyakaza kunye neengxelo zokusebenza kwesitrato. Iingxelo ezivakalisa amava okuphila, inguqu, kunye nokusebenza zihonjiswe kwiimpahla, ezenziwe ngesandla nguBruna Amaro kunye nomthungi, uEliana Amaro dos Santos.

Kumdlalo we-10 ka-Aprili, amabhinqa* angama-40 anxibe isinxibo sepapangu ahamba kwizitrato zaseSão Paulo, ethetha ezifubeni, enxibe izinto ezenziwe ngezandla, engqungqa kumculo wombhiyozo. Bavumela imizimba yabo ukuba ithethe kwaye imizimba ibe ziiflegi zoloyiso.

Kumboniso olandelayo wemultimedia e-Oyoun Berlin ukusuka nge-30 ka-Epreli ukuya kwi-27 kaMeyi, amaxwebhu evidiyo okwenziwa kwecarnival eSão Paulo kuya kujongwa kwiimpahla kunye neemaski. Izambatho ezivela eSão Paulo ziya kuhlaziywa ngabasetyhini be-10 * eBerlin, abaya kuthatha inxaxheba kwi-workshop yeentsuku ezimbini kunye nokusebenza kwesitrato esilandelayo kwindawo yase-Oyoun. Abanye abantu be-FLINTA* bayamenywa ukuba bangenelele umngcelele kwizitrato zaseNeukölln.

Ndiyayiqonda imaski yepapangu njengento egqume ubuso kunye nomzimba, ngokubhekiselele ngokuthe ngqo kwezinye iinkcubeko zasentshona Afrika - njengeYoruba Geledes kunye nabantu baseBobo baseBurkina Faso. Ndikwabona imaski njengento yomlingo kunye nenamandla, njengakwithiyetha yaseNoh kunye neBalinese - into ebangela ukuzalwa. Siza kuvula i-Papangu Mask njengoko sibhiyozela ubuso bethu obugqunyiweyo kunye nemizimba engabonakaliyo kwaye sibanga ilungelo lokungaziwa. (Bruna Amaro)

Kwimibutho yoosolusapho, ngokufuthi ngamadoda kuphela anelungelo lokuvela eqongeni kunye nokunxiba iimaski njengesixhobo somdlalo kunye neendlela zobugcisa zokuthetha - oku kunjalo nakwisithethe saseBezerros, apho ngamadoda kuphela anxiba iimaski zepapangu. Nge-AS * PAPANGUS, uBruna Amaro uphakamisa umbuzo: Ngubani ovunyelwe ukuba angaziwa, ovunyelwe ukuba azikhulule kwizithethe zentlalo, ngubani ovunyelwe ukuba anikezele kumzuzu wenkululeko? Abafazi bakaPapangu * kwizitrato zaseSão Paulo naseBerlin baphinda bafumana ilungelo lokugquma ubuso nokuvuselela amandla alo omlingo.

I-AS* I-PAPANGUS ibandakanyeka ngokunzulu kunye nesakhiwo se-colonial ye-carnival, ngokuqapha ijongene nejongo lengcinezelo kwaye ingavumeli ukuxhatshazwa kwe-queer, ubuhlanga, abafazi, abakhubazekileyo kunye nemibutho ecinezelwe ngokwesakhiwo. Abafazi bakaPangu* abahambi ezitratweni ukuze batyiwe, kodwa bazibhiyozele.

I-AS* I-PAPANGUS ivula isahluko sokuqala sokugxila kwe-Oyoun kugcino Unamandla kunentyatyambo enyathelweyo, enikela ingqalelo kubomi bamabhinqa * akwiimfazwe ezikwimeko yobukoloniyali ize ihlaziye amabali akwimibhalo engcwele yamabhinqa * emfazweni.
