Proposal

.

During her residency, Matilde will propose a creation laboratory aimed at the Trans Antioquia Network, for the production of an album with 5 songs sung, composed and written by trans people, a video clip and a concert. This proposal focuses on proposing a creative process to re-signify the tones of voice in trans feminities, a space for the recognition of diverse bodies in the constructions of non-binary identities.

The tone of voice is a trait that is associated with the sex of a person, thus gender identities that do not identify with their sex, are not identified with their tone of voice. Sometimes the voice tends to be distorted to correspond with the image of the body that projects it, in other cases silence is kept to go unnoticed. The proposal focuses on the possibility of resignifying and valuing the different tones of voice within the imaginary of femininity and on the construction of transfeminine identities.
