The exhibition will showcase a diversity of native languages from Brazil and the stories of resistance of its indigenous peoples.

Over 175 native languages exist throughout Brazil, constituting an immense heritage to be shared and preserved. Curated by indigenous artist and human rights activist, Daiara Tukano, the exhibition dives into the history, memory and challenges faced by Brazil’s indigenous peoples in preserving native languages.

The installation at UNESCO will showcase plastic arts, audiovisual works, poetry, and film elements. In consultation with over 50 indigenous professionals, including visual artists, filmmakers, academics and educators, the exhibition will explore how language serves as a principal vehicle for keeping living heritage alive. As part of the International Decade of Indigenous Languages, "Nhe'Ä“ Porã: Memory and Transformation" seeks to draw global attention to the vulnerable situation of many indigenous languages and build communities around their preservation.
