Estudios en Campo. Conferencia performática en torno a la desaparición forzada

* Programme subject to change

A liminal work that moves between art and activism, it offers a reflection on the role of art as a tool of resistance against systemic violence. Through twenty performative studies, it proposes a manual for artistic-political action that challenges the helplessness caused by the Necro-State, fostering forms of response through the body and creative expression. 

The project emerged within Programa Internacional de Dramaturgia at UNAM, in collaboration with Cátedra Ingmar Bergman, Teatro UNAM, The Anglo Foundation, and the Royal Court Theatre. With over ninety-three pages of proposals and a website to share practices and documentation, the work goes beyond the stage. Its performative lecture format has been presented in venues such as Teatro Santa Catarina, the Royal Court Theatre in London, Festival Fulgor at Teatro Esperanza Iris, and Teatro UNAM’s Residencia Expuesta. A call to act through art.

Press quotes

“Pinedo’s work consists of a series of actions she will carry out on stage herself, in relation to enforced disappearances and the resistance of the population currently taking place in the Mexican state of Guanajuato.”

Forbes

“In another moment of the activation Señas particulares, Sara Pinedo explains that she moves through her own marks to express the value of tattoos in the search, and the need for a non-forensic tattoo archive, as her skin is marked with a new tattoo inspired by the mark of a missing person.”
