RESUMO

This text will discuss the meaning of works originated from scraps, especially in the contemporary world which is characterized by, amongst other aspects, the exacerbation of consumption and by the exhaustion of the natural resources. It is part of an observation of works by the artists Marcos Chaves, Arthur Bispo do Rosario, S. Gabriel Joaquim dos Santos and Frans Krajcberg, and it proposes an approximation between them in relation to one common characteristic: namely the good use, in their creations, of what is regarded as rubbish, scrap or leftovers. The tale Partida do audaz navegante (Departure of the bold sailor), by João Guimarães Rosa, is analysed alongside these works and it is interpreted as an allegory of the creative process, which is achieved by the good use of the scraps. The poetry of Manoel de Barros is present along the whole text, contributing to the reflection on the leftovers in the creation, since the poet emphasizes his option for the unimportant beings, words and things.
