PERFORMING TALK WHAT I AM I WAS NOT BY MYSELF

WITH João Fiadeiro (PORTUGAL) and Maria Fernanda Vomero (BRAZIL)

It is a chat between two people in a format resembling a talk show, occasionally interrupted by deviations blocking its progression and postponing its conclusion. These deviations (these shows), done and undone as the conversation (the talk) unfolds, generate new perception and relationship spaces with the event’s driving force, causing the viewer to “come and go” between the conversation meaning and performance direction.

WHEN

March 9th, Monday, from 11am to 1pm.

WHERE

Oficina Cultural Oswald de Andrade – Sala Cineclube

TRANS * PEDAGOGIES OF AFFECTION BEFORE DEATH POLICIES

WITH Lia Garcia [La Novia Sirena] (MEXICO)
MEDIATION Maria Fernanda Vomero (BRAZIL)

In this performing dialogue, Lia Garcia shares how she has developed, throughout a decade, her affection pedagogy project based on body (cuerpa) trans * (due to the trivialization of the word, the artist writes it with an asterisk at the end) in Mexico’s context, establishing links with the situation in Brazil, as they became two emergency pins where more trans * people worldwide are murdered. Questions that will be shared, hand-to-hand (cuerpa a cuerpa): are affections a political bet of social trans*formation? What could be the trans * resistance to death policies? Is the trans* experience a collective experience?

WHEN

March 3rd, Tuesday, from 11am to 1pm.
