Choqueer de Monstro: Tikal Babado e Pai Amor e os modos de sentir e perceber suas vestes em Cachoeira - BA

Abstract

This dissertation is imbued with concerns that aim at understanding the size of the garments on the bodies of Tikal Babado and Pai Amor. In the relation between dress bodies queers and the city of Cachoeira, in which the analysis is inserted, we try to approach three axes divided in this dissertation: the first locates the discussion in which their bodies are in the dimension of humanity and monstrosity that lend their bodies socially adorned, then we invite to the discussion in which the processes of violence and resistance affect the dissident body together with its dressing expression and its political character as acting subjects, and finally we move the discussions of the sensibility according to the proposal discussed to the logo of work on the ways in which they feel and perceive their clothing, not leaving aside the intersections experienced by their bodies, such as race, gender and sexuality, and the desires that allow their colors, shapes and textures in the projection of their adorned dissidences. To enhance this scenario involved in the research, we present photographs that show in the work the force that their armor imposes, called here to present the resistance of said body that disobeys the “effective” orders of dress. The methodology applied to the work was developed from interviews, according to the contributions of Duarte (2005), in the initial elaboration of using this methodological tool in the elaboration of a sensitive perspective by which subjects of the research feel and perceive about the dress itself and how this relation inserts socially. The tales told by elxs and by us intersect between the queer, artistic, cultural and mediatic studies that compose their dress. The destructions provoked in this work refer to a place where we can establish a sensitive and potentially active field of dressing on their bodies, searching for ways that detract from the performance of forms, such as the cisheterosupremacy of bodies.
