Presente na cultura ioruba e também no interior do Brasil, a prática de lavar roupas na beira do rio é completamente repleta de signos e costumes que trabalham o físico e o mental, um momento especial preenchido de música e cantorias. As lavadeiras carregam consigo letras e cantigas que facilmente se perdem na história. Praticantes da cultura oral, as lavadeiras para o artista são retratadas como uma espécie de Griots.
