Project Timeline: May 10th – May 31st
Meeting: 05/24/2022

Objective: In times where bellicose energies arise, where war, political issues along with patriarchy’s massive attack against women, the shout is necessary!

We proposed so, a talk with the activist and president of the Municipal Council for Women’s Rights in Santa Cruz do Sul, Brazil, Iara Bonfante , who is dedicated to the cause in defense of women, their rights, non-discrimination, gender equality and equity, and the end of violence against women. She has been fighting for the cause for more than 20 years and came to our live chat to share her wisdom.

The conversation took place on May 24, 2022, via ZOOM and was streamed on youtube and had the participation of Ghini , curator of FEMINU and meta-architect, who has been thinking about the theme and started her artistic searches in this direction, and had the mediation of Thais de Almeida Prado , who in 2019 created the project “EXPURGO. DA VIOLÊNCIA. DOS CORPOS QUE COLIDEM. DA ASFIXIA. DO MEDO DE UMA METRÓPOLE” where she invited artists from various fields to respond with their bodies, sounds, images and words to the theme of VIOLENCE. The project encompassed from dance works, to theater, radio plays, performances, installations and audiovisual performances.

The talk is on FEMINU’s Youtube channel and it’s available to the entire near community.

Budget:
Iara Bonfanti - 200 USD (Donated to the movement Council for Women’s Rights in Santa Cruz do Sul)
