fernando belote
fernando belote (Fern) is a bixa*/queer multidisciplinary artist and president of DC-Art Indisciplinaire, artist run centre which supports artists from diverse abilities. Fern’s conceptual practice is informed by personal experiences as a neurodivergent individual and survivor of domestic violence. Their work challenges capitalism's dehumanizing effects and circumscribes ethical perspectives, such as beesha ethics, contra-colonial views, and anti-fascist resistance. The artist currently collaborates on research exploring P(B)ajubá manifestations to disrupt cis-heteronormativity through the bias language. The objective is to confront colonial syntax, breaking down its pervasive influences and oppressive structures within communities.
* Originally perceived as an insult, the expression "bixa/beesha", which could be translated as “female animal” with the symbolic value of "queer or faggot". The word has been transformed into a source of pride, thus constituting a significant response to Brazilian machismo.
