Performance – Installation conceived and directed by Thais Medeiros brings up a reflection on the theme of violence against women as well as the massification and vulgarization of death in current days.
A symbolic procession, a poetic performing manifesto inspired by the devotion carpets (which are made during the religious festivities of Corpus Christi in Brazil) against the tragic tradition of women’s murders in Brazil.
It is a poetic ritual, an attempt to, from the performance space, make the lives of women who were violated and murdered sacred, creating in the moment of the piece creation, a new reality.
A rite of transformation of violence into poetry and the woman empowerment. Its dramaturgy was developed based on statistics, pieces of news and the participants’ personal testimonials.
