2nd PHOTOGRAPHIC RESIDENCE IN NARRATIVE OF GENDER AND IDENTITY

The 2nd photographic residency in narrative of gender, identity and territory "Existimos Estallidxs" was an international event self-managed by the Bolivian collective Warmi Photo and whose objective was to give continuity, from the collective artistic creation, to the spirit of struggle, freedom and reconquest of the public spaces of the last Latin American social outbreaks before the Covid-19 pandemic. It is for this reason that, despite having been a residence with online characteristics, the final works of "Existimos Estallidxs" were part of different interventions in public spaces carried out by the residents themselves in their different countries and in this way to be able to give a homage and continuity to the struggles of Latin American social outbreaks and continue to build collaborative and collective networks that can dialogue both from the private space and the public space.

We deeply believe that, despite the pandemic and the new norms of social distancing, what unites us is the struggle, freedom and the sovereign conquest of our bodies. And this struggle does not recognize spatial limits, it inhabits each one of us, runs through our veins and explodes in our hearts.

Existimos Estallidxs was carried out online given the context of the current Covid-19 pandemic and took place from August 23 to 28 of this year with the participation of 34 Latin American residents led by 5 internationally renowned tutors such as Wara Vargas (Bolivia), Greta Rico (Mexico), Anita Pouchard Serra (Argentina), Camila Falcao (Brazil) and Marcela Bruna (Chile), had as fundamental axes the body, the territory, memory and the environment. All these topics were reflected collectively and carried out personally by each resident under the guidance of their tutor.

The event had a total of 40 training hours between workshops, keynote talks, portfolio reviews and the development of a personal project; the residence was certified by the Bolivian Evangelical University.

Warmi Photo is a Bolivian collective of training and production in narrative of gender, identity, territory and human rights. It is created from the need to generate equitable, inclusive and quality accessible training spaces to strengthen the creation of new diverse and decolonial narratives to generate collaborative and collective networks of authors at the Latin American level.
