Carnaval 2006 features the theme
Land
of Childhood Dreams,
a world where all dreams are possible. |
 |
Fogomorphosis of the Monarch
This
year's theme subliminally honors Fogo Na Roupa's
community members who have passed, but more directly
focuses on the transformation that accompanies death,
symbolized by Nana and the Monarch butterfly.
Of those to whom this year's contingent pays tribute are
the late Icelya Hernandez, daughter of Carnaval
pioneer, director and number one promoter, Roberto
Hernandez; Kip Farris, director of Batu Pitu and
long-time Fogo member, master craftsman and engineer of
endless Carnaval floats; Patricia Vattuone, a
dynamic warrior, dancer, mother of four, and activist;
and Gyasi Ramos, a young artist who dedicated
energies and boundless creativity to the manifestation
of Fogo's 2005 award winning Spirit Tracker float. |

Marra
Reggae 2006:
Each one of us is born into this world with a divine
mission. The soul is the inner fire that gives us
warmth both to our worlds and to our hearts. It is a
creative power, a passion and a guiding force. Our
presentation honors the "Sacred Fire"
in all of us and the passions and dreams of our
childhood. |
