| Abstract | |
This research discusses the challenges for the establishment of social rights in Brazil after the 1988 Constitution. It reflects on the ways in which cultural and health policies took place in the period, the effects of neoliberalism on subjectivation processes and the production of the common. As a counterpoint to this process, collective creative experiences that have taken place in the city of São Paulo since the 1990s, involving artistic, cultural and care practices, have been accompanied. Such practices establish heterogeneous communities in public or open spaces of the city, weaving a non-institutionalized network that produces mental health. The research-intervention carried out a proposal of shared production of knowledge, which took place in a collaborative audiovisual creation. Filming and interviews were made through the perspective and sensations the research participants, documenting the experiences of seven Collectives of this network: Cia. Teatral Ueinzz; Coral Cênico Cidadãos Cantantes, Oficina de Dança e Expressão Corporal (Odec); Coletivo Preguiça; Ponto de Cultura É de Lei; Ponto Benedito de Economia Solidária e Cultura and Clínica Pública de Psicanálise. The documentary Uncommons and a digital collection containing films about each Collective and all the interviews conducted were produced. The documentation reveals that the action of the Collectives weaves support networks that organize themselves autonomously beyond the institutional policies. They also make emerge care strategies to deal with cultural diversity and what is considered uncommon. This shared production of knowledge provided connections among the network and enriched its possibilities for dialogue and cooperation. The modes of creation, support and agency operated by the Collectives was analyzed. It has provided input for reflection on what types of policies could support autonomous and transversal collective practices implicated in the common, fostering the existence of other cultures of care.
