PROJECTS
OBINRIN
Ancestry, Artist Residency, and Black Feminist Performance
The project was configured as an artistic, feminist and black occupation in the Espaço Cultural da Barroquinha (BA). The objective was to give visibility to the contemporary productions of black artists and their speeches, as well as to discuss the historical erasure of black women who were relevant in the cultural and political scene of the city, promoting new networks between Brazilian Afro-diasporic artists and the Latin American territory.

CARTOGRAPHING AFFECTS
The project proposes the generation of a creative and documentary process from the listening of 10 black women by other women, enabling reflection on the effects generated by racism and machismo in their subjectivities.
