Feminist Runway, fragment from the movie 13 hours of rebellion. 2014
Video, 17'01''
Mujeres Creando is an anarchist, feminist collective that uses creativity as an instru¬ment for resistance and social participation. Feminist Runway is an audiovisual project that documents parodies of fashion runway involving ordinary women intervening in iconic places in the city of La Paz, Bolivia. Through these interventions they protest against the imposition of beauty stereotypes and the objectification of women, while denouncing the control exercised over bodies by the fashion industry, modeling and beauty pageants in Latin America. A number of grotesque crowns for beauty pageants, to be created with women in Medellín, will accompany the video.
Mujeres Creando are also holding a workshop for comic strips that deals with romantic love. Through an open call and by using their connections with like-minded organizations in Medellín, women are invited to participate in the workshop, which will result in a collectively created mural.
