In a world where the frameworks of public debate are increasingly polarized, and normative regulations suffocate spaces for diverse expression and representation, efforts are needed to rethink imaginaries, especially regarding what is most intimate and personal, such as desire. This project revisits practices from experimental cinema, amateur art, and activism to foster safe environments from which to explore fantasies and imaginaries of bodily pleasure beyond violent and biased stereotypes.
In recent times, concerns have grown about premature access to content generated by a radically heteronormative and violent pornography industry. The alarm in social debate reached a peak with the “La Manada” case, but beyond the outrage, it is difficult to propose the need to critically discuss a puritanism that prevents open discussion and representation of the diversity of desire and the need to deepen into an ethics of affection.
