Ethical and societal entanglements on Priscila Rezende’s art:: black-woman-performer

Abstract

Countless women engage themselves in performative arts as a place for their societal, feminist and racial claims. This text revolves around these performative questions as being social movements acting in the fight for the rights of black women. To that end, we evoke the work of Priscilla Rezende, an artist from Minas Gerais, highlighting two of her works, namely “Bombril” and “Genesis 03:16”. Thus, the writing elicit recurring ethical implications which engender fundamental articulations within both feminist and black people fights.
