presença das mulheres na construção da paisagem da Baía de Guanabara - RJ

Abstract

This article analyzes the landscapes of Guanabara Bay, an important access point for the city of Rio de Janeiro and its Metropolitan Region. Initially, we propose to “brush history against the grain” in search of flashes of unrevealed memory, and then an investigation into a specific social group, that of women who also built the landscape of Guanabara Bay. Here we propose ways of seeing the landscape against the grain, putting into dispute the look of women and spaces excluded from hegemony. We believe that Guanabara Bay has layers of analysis, as a city, as water, as a cradle, as a breast, as a flow. The objective is to look for evidence of other landscapes of the Bay, putting in dispute the look of women in the hegemonic landscape. The way of thinking/doing that we propose is the assembly, disassembly and reassembly of these landscapes, locating where they are in the territory.
