This ethnographic essay presents a pedagogical proposal used as an intervention in the academic research and extension project, prize winner of EDITAL PAEX No01/2017, “Mãe Domingas, educação pelas águas do Rio Sabará”, developed in the city of Sabará/MG in partnership with the following institutions: Faculty of Education – UEMG (Research Group Polis and Mnemosine), Museu do Ouro/Ibram, Laval University (Quebec/Canada) and School of Information Science/UFMG. In this project, photographic accounts and reflections on the collective and individual memories of former washerwomen were performed, these were made through two photography workshops that [re] established the relations of affection and bond with routes, stories, and experiences in the face of changes and permanence of Sabará River. These workshops wove narratives through photographic records of places of memory which created affection maps to mediate an education of sensibilities and patrimonies.
