20:00 de_colon_isation part I: Inner Beauty von Pedrâ Costa & Eduardo Triviño Cely

Pêdra Costa is a Brazilian Performance Artist and Anthropologist based in Vienna / Berlin. She is currently doing a Diploma in Conceptual Art in the Academy of Fine Arts Vienna and working with queer migrant artists internationally. Her work is transversed by the aesthetics of post-porn, her research on decolonial concepts, and an understanding of art and life as being totally interconnected. “Since childhood, my desires and my blurred identity have been subjected to violence, and that became the basis of my creation: work with memory and identity. For me, body and criticism are not disconnected. What inspires me is failure and insecurity.”
