Historietas kukama en la Amazonía peruana. Un taller de autorrepresentación en la ciudad de Nauta

This paper presents the experience and results of a comic workshop held in September 2016 in the city of Nauta, Peru. The activity was carried out within the project “Alter-native Epistemologies” of the University of Cagliari. The context in which the project was carried out is that of a small town in which the majority of the population is of Kukama indigenous descent. However, throughout the 20th century and up to the present day, the Kukama have experienced a process of invisibilisation of their cultural identity that has only been partially reversed in recent years. In this work, through the analysis of the comics produced during the workshop, we will show how, despite the marginalisation, the Kukama cultural elements survive in the younger generations from Nauta.
