Description
Summary:This article describes the social intervention work of 13 performance pieces by women workers and/or residents of the Historic Center, led by Lorena Wolffer and Territories of Culture for Equity, made in 2010. The objective is to show how the production of performative acts —where the body manifests itself— creates life changes in spaces for escape and intersubjectivity in the center city. This art illustrates that small collective acts, which are part of new politics of presence, creates resistance from emotions and generates respect.
