Performance e gênero: estudos de casos de performances que discutem violências contra a mulher latino-americana na sociedade

Abstract

How to create a poetics, through the arts of the body, that portrays the violence to which Latin American women are subjected? This was one of the concerns that boosted me to research performing as a form of creation. The aim was to contribute to academic studies in the field of theater based on the questioning raised by performing practices, by relating them to decolonial feminism and to initiate processes of creations in the field of performance that depict the hypersexualization/inferiorization of Brazilian women. For this, I analyze the work of Latin American female performers and, with the intention of making a cut to the Brazilian context, I, as a Brazilian woman, carry out processes of photoperformances and performances creation.
