Latim Love: a platform to research Latin America.
Latim Love is an independent and collaborative platform dedicated to Latin American culture. We reflect on theoretical issues, to address, through a more accessible and playful language, the challenges faced by the Latin American community and diaspora.
One of the initiatives developed was "Portunhol: Uma Língua del Futuro?", which involved producing tote bags in Brazil and Portugal. Printed on cotton bags, the title-question circulates across countries, drawing attention to the linguistic phenomenon of portunhol selvagem (wild portunhol), or portuñol selvátiko, coined by the poet Douglas Diegues. This initiative continues the research that led to the video Portunhol: Uma Língua Selvaje?, which garnered nearly 100,000 organic views, giving the project significant visibility.
Latim Love expanded and started to organize screenings of documentaries related to borders. The platform is growing stronger and is set to evolve into a biannual magazine featuring contributions from writers and artists across Latin America and the Caribbean.
Talented people who already collaborate with Douglas Jesus, Marin Matos, Rafaela Cardeal, Yasmim Kalaf, and Vini Lourenço.
👛 I conceptualized the "Portunhol tote bag" that was quickly sold out in Brazil and Portugal. Phrase: "Portunhol, is it a language of the future?"
