Abstract
In order to nourish the soil of the master’s research with other perspectives, this article is an attempt to incorporate new references and re-elaborations to the investigation that was designed to map certain daily arrangements of the production of life, the dynamics of the territory and the forms of resistance to a structural project of precarization of existence from the encounters with some residents of a peripheral neighborhood of São Paulo/SP. To cover this theoretical/relational ground (human and extra-human) intended to be prepared and nurtured throughout the doctoral process, questions about the crossings and effects of the unequal coping with the covid-19 pandemic on marginalized social groups have been incorporated. Without claiming to provide definitive answers in this incipient resumption, the aim is to produce a kind of “compost-writing” with other possible perspectives, intersections and analyses. The bet is that the narrative-landscapes recalled from the experiences of encounters, which are brought to light here, give rise to “germinations” subject to a new problematizing intervention in the processes of invisibilization of certain existences − and the territorialities they inhabit - that paradoxically reveal the systematic acts of “walling” and concealing these geographic-existential territories.
