TePI takes place in the hybrid format of Artistic Show (in person) and Digital Platform (online), bringing a curatorial thinking that correlates these two means. The curatorship and artistic direction are in charge of Andreia Duarte, artist and activist linked for more than 20 years to the indigenous cause, and Ailton Krenak, writer, environmentalist and world-renowned indigenous leader.

​

FUNDAMENTALS​
Theatre and other languages: TePI approaches theater in the expansion and diversity of its forms, as well as is interested in different artistic languages that bring the body in its aesthetic and political expression.

​

The works: TePI seeks works that point to the existence beyond humanity, being interested in people but also in the vegetable, the animal, the air, the water, the earth.

​

Indigenous protagonism and our common home: TePI estimates the protagonism of indigenous artists in their expression and representation. And it wants encounters between indigenous and non-indigenous artists and intellectuals valuing plural partnerships for the benefit of the common life.

​

HISTORICAL
In 2018, "Tepi - Theater and Indigenous Peoples: Encounters of Resistance" took place, which was hosted in person at SESC Pompeia, bringing the recognition that in Brazil there are contemporary theatrical researches and productions that relate to issues guided by the activism of the indigenous peoples.

​

In 2020, Tepi was all organized to be launched in May as an Artistic Exhibition, contemplating 10 days of intensive programming. With the COVID-19 global pandemic, the event was canceled. Still not knowing how to reorganize itself in the face of the spread of the disease throughout the country and in the indigenous reserves, the Tepi decides to wait, holding only occasional meetings in Lives on Theatre and indigenous peoples.
