Aspectos do gênero, ritual e espacialidade na produção de mulheres artistas contemporâneas no Brasil.

Abstract

The investigations presented in this article are based on studies regarding the flows between handmade crafts, domesticities and the feminine in their
relations with tradition and with contemporary art. They mainly consider the
re-appropriation of embroidery, sewing and objects related to the domestic environment in a context in which are questioned both gender relations and the
transmission and exchange of knowledge, rituals and practices among women.
The artistic project developed by Miranda (Parto de Maria, 2019) is a result of the
alignment between Undergraduate Research and Experimental Project in Visual
Arts and raises questions, through everyday elements and visual and bodily experiences, about what is seen as feminine. It therefore tensions particularly that
which concerns the identities, subjectivities and daily rites associated with being
a woman, and considering the Brazilian art scene led by female artists, in order
to connect experiences and personal memories, particular paths in the visual arts
field and debates relevant to the academic-artistic milieu.
