Summary: To think photography as an instrument or tool to discovery, affirmation or comprehension of identity. The act of verifying the portrait as a painting of gender has been influenced and modified through time by the use of photography, and how these two aspects photography and portrait can allow an analysis of Brazilian social portraiture via work produced by artists Tarsila do Amaral and Cândido Portinari. To discuss how photography is used as a tool for ethnic, social and political analysis. How we can reflect on the (contemporary photography field) as a social and ethnic agent, to contribute to a philosophical dialogue about photography, with its conflicts, manifests and how it can be allied to those questions. To debate how photography is utilized as an instrument not only to store memory but also regarding its activation, being used as a trigger on oral accounts, together with interviews and roundtables. And how through this link of photography and memory we can build, affirm, rearrange an identity both as an individual and as a group, using the case study Project Humanae (work in progress), by photographer Angélica Dass, to verify how portrait photography can be a powerful instrument of transformation, comprehension and affirmation of the processes of identity. Keywords: Art, Color, Photography, Identity, Portrait.
