The Araketu is a collective formed in the 90's. Among other issues related to group therapy, they were particularly engaged on Personality Crisis and how it affects the social relations of the individual as subject for their poetry. In this piece they use exploding popcorn to exemplify the panic and distortion of values related to this problem and how often it particularly occurs in chain reactions. the fire is fire it heatens it heatens our love the fire is fire heat up that the ara arrived! the araketu the araketu when it touches leaves everybody jumping like popcorn
Proudly bringing Brazilian poetry to anglophones since 2009!
