Abstract

The objective of this study is to develop a comparative analysis between the short story As mãos dos pretos, by Luís Bernardo Honwana and the virtual exhibition Touch me by Sónia Sultuane. The dialogue between the two artistic manifestations in question takes place through an intersemiotic relationship through the representation of hands and the respective synesthesia of the tactile sense. To support our reflections, we use as a theoretical contribution the concept of cosmoperception by Oyèrónké Oyèwúmì (2021), the metamorphosis of Mozambican voices by Terezinha Taborda Moreira (2005) and moments of transition by Francisco Noa (2017), in addition to other theoretical undertakings summoned by the respective intersemiotic analysis.
