This paper studies the collection of the Dica Frazão Art Museum, which for two decades has
had a long-term exhibition of textiles made from plant fibers. The garments, which are the main
artifacts in this museum collection, are at the center of the research because, through them and
knowledge of fashion, it is possible to understand how these objects contribute to individual
and social memory in Santarém, as well as bringing to light visions of women's art and fashion
in the mid-1950s to 1998. The categories Museum, Collection and Fashion will be worked on
in order to understand the symbolic value of these objects in close relation to the trajectory of
the craftswoman herself. We established theoretical dialogues with reference studies in the field
and research into a body of documentation found in the Museum, in photographs, in news
published between the 1970s and 1980s, and in interviews granted by Dica Frazão herself. The
research takes into account the possible strategies of symbolic valorization of the artist, who
evokes repertoires such as pioneering spirit, authenticity and identity with Amazonian
biodiversity.
