Bahiana holds 9th edition of the Poetry Circuit

Conduct poetry in different institutional environments, leading those who circulate there to enjoy this art in the most varied ways. This is the idea of ​​the Poetry Circuit of Bahiana, whose 9th edition was held on March 26th, at Campus Brotas, and April 2, at Campus Cabula. Despite being aimed at letters, the event also includes musical performances and other forms of artistic language.

The Poetry Circuit is an initiative of Bahiana, coordinated by the Psychopedagogical Care Center (NAPP), led by psychologist Angélica Mendes. She explains that, in addition to promoting the appreciation of poetry, the action encourages the appreciation of the house's talents, featuring productions by academics, teachers and collaborators.

1st semester Psychology student Mariana Cajado gave a musical performance on Campus Brotas. “Poetic texts are a form of therapy. When I went to therapy, I showed my poems. I think this event is also very valid for our training, because, for psychologists, it is very important to learn to interpret”. According to Luiza Salgado, also a 1st semester Psychology student, events, such as the Poetry Circuit, are essential in academic training. “Art is the most intrinsic thing in us to express our feelings. Even those who don't produce art experience it by listening to music, reading a poem. Art is in our daily lives”, declared Luiza, who is already preparing her band’s presentation for the August of the Arts of Bahiana.
