¿Qué significa tener un cuerpo propio y formar parte de un cuerpo colectivo?

​

Poner el cuerpo o el futuro ya es feminista is an artistic research, a participatory art project, and a feminist art-education methodology that weaves somatic and visual arts practices to situate the body within feminisms, understanding its materiality as a political territory and image-making as an expanded field of the body's performativity.

​

Developed through laboratories of collective creation, it addresses practices of care and a feminist rereading of action painting as collective action, resulting in the Mantas de Manifestación series, large-scale visual works created through embodied gestures using cochineal-based watercolor and a tape-resist technique that allows text to emerge in negative.

​

Together, these processes, visual works, and their public interventions articulate a translocal reflection on feminist thought and practice, where shared presence becomes both a living archive and a collective statement.

​

Poner el cuerpo has been developed internationally in collaboration with museums, grassroots collectives, and art spaces, including Festival Internacional Cuatro X Cuatro (Mexico), The Women’s Building (USA), La Revuelta (Guatemala), AWID International Forum (Thailand), Museo de Arte de Zapopan (Mexico), and Poco a Poco (Mexico).
