Corpo a corpo: percepções sobre os corpos femininos na mídia, na sociedade e no cotidiano

Abstract

This experimental projetc presents an study onthe current representarion of the female body in media. Based on the principal that the body is a cultural construction, we long for understanding how the social cultural structure estabilish which bodies are shown in the media and how this structure affects women. To explore​ as much as​ ​ possible our object we used the method of cartography. It helped to identify our goals.​ Additionally we used semiotics, that also made us notice the images and the female bodys, as well it allowed us to deep in the third senses of social and cultural order in the images, those were lated directly with concepts of​ habitus, The Beauty Myth and simbolic violence. We point out that the entire process of analises and comprehention was enriched by the interviews we’ve done.​ Nevertheless the interviewees presented to us their point of view on the subjetc and their own body, wich provides a diversity of glamps and speech inside this project. Finally we performed a photoshoot that aimed to conteurpart our percptions about the current mediatic representation of the female’s bodies.
