Sororidad en los procesos de resistencia a las prácticas artísticas precarias

Abstract

Most of the artistic practices in Mexico are precarious, where various resistance processes are gestated. The purpose of this article is to give an account of the resistance strategies that artists create, how they affect the bodies and what affective processes are generated. An ethnography was performed on a group of women visual artists from 32 to 42 years old. It was found that collective work is used as a form of resistance, highlighting in the emotional dimension a sorority that provides a sense of belonging, identity, empathy and empowerment; and the processes of resistance are built by imagination, creation and transformation. All these elements are strongly influenced by the feminist position that the group has and have contributed to them generating other resistances, collective resistances, sororal resistances.
