This paper shares sensitive aspects of the man, professor and researcher Gilmar de Carvalho in sharing his studies and knowledge. It seeks to emphasize the rhizomatic web of how, in a simple and inclusive way, he was germinating the recognition of popular cultures, their holders and producers of this knowledge. The article brings the point of view of a teaching artist, from Ceará, whose relations with Gilmar were always present in the constant struggle for traditional knowledge, seeking to give visibility to the invisible hinterlands and/or peripheral areas of these Ceará`s, through communicational and/or educational means. In the methodological path, I used an exploratory research in my affective ties with his work in a descriptive of a qualitative approach, of how each one of them relates to everything I know and do as an active teaching artist. The result brought me several meetings with myself, this professional woman flower of Gilmar, in sensitive moments of eternal learning and gratitude. These meetings, that I now promote through this work, brought me a living Gilmar, present and active through the entire legacy he left for us, confirming yet another of his thesis that it is possible to remain alive through what is perpetuated by writing. I hope this can also sensitize everyone to see the seed man Gilmar beyond the professional.
