The poetic trace seeks to present the paths of the creative process developed in Practical Training in Theatre Pedagogy III, a mandatory component of the Licenciatura em Teatro - UFBA, approaches present in my course completion work, an archive from which to extract the traces presented in the writing. In this teaching experience I conducted a path of poetic cartographic writing, in an interdisciplinary way, articulating the narratives developed in the virtual meetings held during the component. As a methodological proposal, we carried out a sharing and exchanges translated into performance, through which we reflected about the marks of systemic racism with analyses based on gender, race and social class relations. The social markers cited are recurrent in the stories of the characters fictionalized by the Afro-Brazilian writer Conceição Evaristo. The creative cut presents the cataloging of the short stories Olhos d'água, Ana Davenga and Maria (EVARISTO, 2015) narratives, which led the process that resulted in the performance Mata-borrão.
