SUMMARY:

This work is an investigation about maps, as a polysemic and heterogeneous set of images and analytical tools that contain narratives of spatiotemporal synchrony. As well as narratives of knowledge and power in dispute, which allow us to think, narrate and make the urban space and its relationships. Maps and representations of space produce narratives, conditioned by choices and simplifications that are always necessary, which, however, are traversed by political, race, gender and class issues, collaborating in the production of silences and structural absences. At the same time, the most common maps, given their Cartesian modes of representation, are only capable of narrating space and its events through the quantification and description of the contours of things, using scale, projection and symbolization, limiting the possibilities of reflection. about the cities. Thus, given the relevance that maps have in the field of urbanism and in the dissemination of information about the covid-19 pandemic, criticism of the production of space requires reflecting on their narratives, especially regarding the study of political dimensions. of the silences and absences of these representations, in addition to their ethical and aesthetic implications. In this sense, this work aims to test maps that help to think about ways of narrating urban space, attentive to what is normally "silenced" in conventional maps, from the context of the covid-19 pandemic in Salvador, Bahia. , with special attention to urban mobilities and immobilities. The research is carried out through three approaches: a critical approach with a theoretical review and an analysis by maps (images) and texts, made from critical cartography. A proactive approach to reflect on ways of thinking/narrating/doing the complexities of urban space and its inequalities, through images and from my own observation of everyday life in social isolation in contrast to the constant mobility of other workers. Finally, an experimental approach where I test other ways of producing maps such as cartographic stories that do not separate places, characters, times and events, under the idea of montage using pictograms and typefaces, considering technical production and experimentation with imaginative practices, a process that involves and produces knowledge as a significant part of this reflection.
