Abstract

Through the work “birdoftheocean”, Karina Bidaseca invites us to learn about the “feminist and cuir cultural, political and artistic legacy” (2021: 10) of the Cuban artist Ana Mendieta. This book allows us to walk through the story of her life captured in different works and performances, where her body-territory expresses the oppressions of racism, sexism, classism, exile and uprooting; but from which he manages to transmute that pain and become a bird of the ocean. The text, crossed by different categories such as art, feminism, intersectionality, colonialism, allows us to understand the importance of the figure of Ana and the traces of her work in feminism.
