Vidas-obras-de-arte em composição: uma: cartografia dos territórios de cuidado da população de rua.

de Andrade Couto, Joaquim Gabriel; Botazzo, Carlos

This article starts from the problematization of the conception of care disseminated by the biomedical discourse, to think about the care production process among the homeless population, considering that the main objective of this article is to give visibility to the production of care territories on the streets. Care is a complex concept, due to its ontological dimension, which leads us to understand it as an existential condition, considering that we exist from and through care. Thus, cartography was adopted as the research method following the processes of care territories composition among homeless people. The mapped scenes present the delimitation of existential territories in the streets, territories characterized by their nomadism, understood as nomadic not only by their displacement through space and time but also by their variability and rhizomatic connections. In this cartographic process, it was possible to visualize the production of care networks in the daily routine of homeless people, care produced from the relations established with otherness. In this sense, it is necessary to be aware of the signs from the streets, intending to know and recognize their lines of escape, so we can learn other ways to meet ourselves in the world and produce care.
