The research is grounded in a methodological approach that combines artistic practice, theoretical reflection, and critical analysis of artworks using techniques such as screen printing, collagraphy, linocut, and direct impression. Through works like Colcha Gráfica, Brasiliano, Sob o Sol do Nordeste, and the Folhinhas series (2021–2024), the project proposes a sensitive graphic listening to the symbolic layers of the territory, incorporating concepts such as hybridity, belonging, and gesture. By challenging historical stereotypes and exploring printmaking as an expanded language, the study positions artistic practice as a space of resistance, memory, and invention.

It is based on the understanding that storytelling is an ancestral practice, culturally rooted and still central to processes of knowledge and language mediation. The research seeks to articulate concepts from neuroscience, pedagogy, narrative performance, and design with behavioral studies on emotion, in order to propose requirements for the editorial design of illustrated children’s books aimed at affective storytelling. The investigation adopts a qualitative and transdisciplinary approach, composed of theoretical review, interviews with storytellers, and Bardin’s (2011) content analysis, which enabled the unveiling of latent meanings within narratives and the organization of categories capable of articulating emotion, design, and narrative performance. It is grounded in authors such as Damásio, Freire, Van der Linden, Lazzarato, Mariño, Silveira, Manovich, and Barthes, integrating discussions on embodied cognition, modularity, transcodification, and affectivity in design. The results highlight the relevance of editorial design as a mediator of sensitive experiences, capable of enhancing the practice of storytelling and the formation of readers who are more critical, expressive, and connected with the world around them.

The study focuses on the 1940s –– particularly during the remarkable and controversial years of the Estado Novo –– when, working within the state apparatus, he began his professional career and produced some of the most substantial parts of his oeuvre. A pioneer of modernist language in photography and attentive to the city’s landscapes and rhythms, Fraga composed a vast visual inventory of the objects, culture, customs, characters, and landscapes that shaped urban life in Bahia’s capital during that period. His series include a detailed documentation of the reforms promoted by the administration of Durval Neves da Rocha (1938–1942), the second major wave of local modernization. By gathering and interpreting his work, this research shows how Fraga’s photography contributed to preserving the memory of a period that reshaped the Salvador we know today.

These innovations are significantly connected to photography and public art. Using a poetic language that focuses on the process of elaboration for the highlighted works here, exploring various representations of elements of nature and human expressiveness, ranging from the creation of large wooden plates to engravings that fit in the palm of the hand. These plates, in turn, intertwine with other aspects of arts research, especially in printmaking. In this way, the subjects and their expressiveness within the context of the engraved images relate to the urban landscape and the characters of the city of Salvador. Thus, the works in progress aim to characterize and highlight features of both anonymous individuals and characters who reveal their stories through poetic chronicles in prints that become part of the local landscape, as well as three-dimensional objects and elements of nature.
