Sobre nós, laços e afetos

Abstract

This final paper deals with maternal relationships among four black women. Three mothers and one daughter. It develops through reflection, creation and education, the roles played by the author in these relationships. The practical work developed uses photographs and embroidery. The result is an artistic installation. The objective was to build a space where an encounter with ancestral relationships was possible. In this process it is also necessary to elaborate a mourning, experienced in the covid19 pandemic. Looking at the dualities and the symptoms generated from this mourning in the domestic spaces and in the body itself. All of this through art. For this, I also created a didactic material that invites us to get in touch with our ancestral relationships. The artwork presented at the end, proposes the immersion of the viewer in a backyard, which through artistic intervention is transformed into a space of experimentation of these maternal relationships of affections.
