Abstract

The work presents the trajectory of the sambista and artist Ednei Pedro Mariano, who has been working in carnival parades since the end of the 1960s. Nascimento claims that they are transatlantic terri-tories that preserve and gather knowledge fromquilombos. Mariano, in addition to witnessing the transformations that took place throughout the years, is also the protagonist of these transforma-tions. As a methodology, specialized bibliography, observation of records of carnival parades in digital media and interviews with the artist were used. The article is part of an ongoing research on the histories of black dances in the city of São Paulo.
