The work presented is the result of a research (a master's thesis) carried out from a participant observation, using the resources of the field diary and graphic diary. Thus, I produced a series of drawings of the uses and meanings attributed to various wheeled instruments (wheelbarrows, freight carts, refrigerator carts, warehouse carts, supermarket carts, etc.) of different social actors (marketers , customers, freight forwarders, street sweepers, collectors, homeless people, etc.) within the scope of a public market and an occupation of collectors of reusable and recyclable materials, both located in the Bairro dos Estados at the city of João Pessoa-PB, Brazil. This work enters the field of Urban Anthropology and Visual Anthropology, rethinking the possibilities of creation and invention that are intertwined in doing (ethno)graphic work. From this perspective, in the paths lived in the city, lives were intertwined, in the company of the other and can be seen from the circulation of instruments with wheels in their daily lives of different social actors. According to this bias, the written work was produced from a multi-sited ethnography and an ethnographic action, with the objective to think about the context of these instruments with wheels in the urban public space and its surroundings, which I call a to-do-city-within-wheels. In this way, this ethnographic research sought to follow the circulation of carts in the urban space associated with sociocultural practices, using drawing as an ethnographic method, life's stories, informal conversations and theoretical anthropology references. Thus, theoretical perspectives on the notions of urban public space, city and everyday life are discussed; graphic diary and ethnographic drawing; movements, flow, technique and symbolic representations; writing, creativity and visual arts; and finally, market fairs and public markets, theories which served to guide the writing of this anthropological research.
