With the aim of reflecting on the invisibility of black women in graphic pieces and their participation in the leisure environment dedicated to sexual practices at the Guaicurus Amusement Complex. This article seeks to present the dissemination of sex in leisure spaces in a large prostitution area in the capital of Minas Gerais. The analysis tool chosen to carry out this research were design techniques and visual elements (MUNARI, 2016). The graphic pieces analyzed were registered in sex establishments in the Rua dos Guaicurus region, in the period between September/2019 and January/2020. Therefore, to carry out this reflection, we used Joice Berth (2018) to articulate the concepts of power and empowerment; and Patricia Hill Collins (2019) with Black Feminist Thought to corroborate the analysis of the representations made of women in sexual services, especially black women in Brazil. At the end of the study, it was realized that there is almost no representation of black women in printing shops found in the Guaicurus region in Belo Horizonte - MG. In light of the authors mentioned and the data analysis, it was possible to see that the disclosure of sex, as it is carried out in this region, contributes to the erasure of the black body in visual communication and confirms stereotypes that stigmatize women.
