OCA Oca is the name given to the typical Brazilian indigenous housing. The term comes from the Tupi-Guarani language family. The ocas are buildings of big dimension, and may reach 40 m in length.[1] They are built through joint effort over one week, with a wooden structure and bamboo and straw cover or palm leaves. They can last 15 years. They have no internal divisions or windows, only a few doors and serve as collective housing for several families.[2]

What attracts me are free and sensual curves. The curves in my country's mountains, In the sinuous flow of its rivers, In the beloved woman's body”
