In this workshop, Sofia Yala Rodrigues proposes a practical and poetic exercise of observation, analysis and reframing of archival images, for a critical reflection on ethics and representation of the black body, ranging from colonial and post-colonial imagery to contemporary visual culture.
Visual artist with a degree in African Studies from the Faculdade de Letras da Universidade de Lisboa, Sofia Yala Rodrigues is currently attending her Master’s in Film and Photography at the University of Derby. She has a special interest in archives, transatlantic stories and new imaginary. Recently, she participated in the Residencies À Margem do Cinema Português: Residência Artística Afroeuropeans (CEIS20 — Centro de Estudos Interdisciplinares do Século XX da Universidade de Coimbra, Portugal, 2019) and Catchupa Factory Artist Residency 2018 (Associação Olho‑de‑gente, Cabo Verde, 2018).
