Participant Presentations: muSa Michelle Mattiuzzi - Wed 13 MAR 2024

Colonial violence is a constant theme of muSa’s poetic investigation and her works appropriate and subvert the exotic place attributed to Black women's bodies by the white-cis-normative imagery narratives, which transform her image into some sort of aberration, an entity split between the wonderful and the abject. muSa Michelle Mattiuzzi is an undisciplined artist whose research and practice unfold in works that transit through different means of expression, from performance to writing, from photography to films. muSa is currently interested in Black Radical Thinking and in the study of the works of philosopher Denise Ferreira da Silva and cultural theorist Fred Moten.She is the founder of the platform Rethinking the Aesthetics of the Colony in partnership with the Goethe Institut São Paulo and The Social Justice Institute (GRSJ) of the University of British Columbia. She was awarded by the Prize Villa Romana and KHI Max Planck in Florence, Italy (2021). And she was invited as a theater director for the CIA Capulanas de Arte Negra with financial support from the 38th Fomento de Artes Cênicas of the City of São Paulo and the Gwälter Foundation (2023).
