Um olhar de fora: fotografias de mulheres migrantes exiladas em sua própria art

Trata-se de uma mostra fotográfica e vídeo de mulheres artistas migrantes na cidade do Porto que deverá ter a sua vernissage no KISMIF 2021.

Através da fotografia, da escultura e da performance, apresentar-se-ão os rostos da emoção e do silêncio que nos turva de deslumbramento, perante mulheres que habitam a cidade por decisiva opção e que trabalhando se libertam dos lugares sombrios da errância. São rostos que trazem e devolvem tremendos olhares de magia e sabedoria e em que, desprevenidos, somos acolhidos entre o sortilégio da ignorância e a devoradora exclusão da individualidade.

A narrativa será desenhada por olhares estrangeiros que habitam por trás da lente, porém, repletos de sensibilidade, destacando detalhes significativos da expressão, da vida, do movimento, dessas mulheres com o mundo criativo em que vivem. Serão fotografias e imagens vídeo a preto e branco, que captam diversas linguagens artísticas, subjetivas e sociais de cada mulher na cidade do Porto e seus micro-cosmos.

Hoje, Elizângela Pinheiro apresenta-vos uma exposião colectiva de várias fotografias, esculturas e um curta.
