Lisbon (Portugal), Mar 6. (EFE), (Camera: Andrea Caballero).- "It is impossible to be a woman and not have feminist consciousness," says Rita GT, a Portuguese artist who seeks, through her performances, to "generate a collective cure" against the injustices that women suffer. In 'Unearthing', which opens on March 8, on the occasion of Women's Day, the artist tells the stories of women who emigrated during the Portuguese colonial period. SOUNDBITES OF PORTUGUES ARTIST RITAGT:"Joining the energies of older women and do a job with the younger ones to have a collective healing attempt.""He was a war criminal and it makes no sense, amid the awareness that today exists, to pay homage to a war criminal.""I am a white woman, privileged by the fact of my skin colour, despite the injustices that I suffer for the fact of being a woman.""Sometimes, when we want to help, we end up weighing down and fetishizing black skin.""It is a good topic and something interesting to talk about. Like any injustice in human history, it must be rewritten. People say that in the past, there were no female artists because they had no right to have a profession. But that is not true. Because we have the job of rewriting and rethinking the history of art, of investigating the history of humanity. We will find great women artists." "For me, it is impossible to be a woman and not have feminist consciousness. I have the certainty that there is not a woman in the whole world who has not suffered an injustice for being so because the entire social structure is designed so that these events are part of daily life."
