She claims each body as an autonomous, singular and legitimate space, seeking to get closer to a certain intimacy, and therefore to emancipation, although always inscribed in a network of paradoxes. A project intrinsically linked to a concern (and urgency) to give voice to a personal, political and social activism.<\/p>\n
Furthermore, she continues to collaborate with Daniela Rodrigues, in the cosmic feminist DJ duo, KOSMIK KUNTS.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"featured_media":3192,"template":"","class_list":["post-3194","artistas","type-artistas","status-publish","has-post-thumbnail","hentry"],"acf":[],"yoast_head":"\n
