We present a visual narrative that values the object bricelets de São Cristóvão, inserting it into an investigation that contextualises it within a creative process. We documented this work process by developing an artistic production comprising 12 works, paintings made using mixed media, and we incorpo- rated an interview into the process to enrich our work. With the bricelets de São Cristóvão as the main subject, in this artistic memoir our work explores the themes of cultural heritage and memory, art and social history, as well as theories about artistic practice and materiality Our aim was to build memory about bricelets, a significant element of the intangible cultural he- ritage of São Cristóvão and Sergipe, expressing the richness and importances of these traditions. We conclude that, by referring to the bricelets de São Cristóvão, we have produced works of art that dialogue with the language of the visual arts, contributing to the appreciation of this heritage.
