tatiana nascimento spoken word performances, poetic soundtracks and video-poems assume an aesthetics of screaming silence in which words, gestures and pauses merge to enlace and project tatiana nascimento?s own voice and expression as a turning point against the racist and homophobic historical silencing while avoiding victimization rhetoric. tatiana nascimento written poetry geometrically occupies the paper, leading to a verticalized visual word-playing where meanings and phonemes break to make and unmake sense. She establishes a dialogue with the diasporic fractures caused by the colonial kidnapping and exploitation of Black people in order to de-constructs / re-construct and remake narratives diffused within Afro-American context. This process of remembering, reinventing and recollecting also flows with rebuilding Oyá tales (that is Orishá of thunders and storms) that is a main work theme to tatiana nascimento, based on a cuíer/queer perspective rooted on her own experiences of blackness, fatness, sex(uality), trance.
