PERCEPTION OF SPACE BY RACIALIZED WOMEN

Abstract

This project explores how the bodies of women, intersected by axes of racist oppression – racialization, nationality, administrative status, and mother tongue – perceive the spaces of the street, the park, the family home, the internet, and their own bodies. Using a qualitative approach through the technique of ethnography and the instrument relief maps (Rodó de Zárate, 2014), the results show how racialized women perceive public spaces as oppressive and the family home and their own bodies as spaces of relief despite the violence experienced in them.
