About

Manifesto transpofágico (Transpophagic Manifest) is the transpophagy, of the transpology of a transpologist. “Today I decided to wear my own skin. My transvestite body” Renata “wears” her own body to tell the historicity of her corporeality. “My body came before me, without me asking. It is older than me”. Renata feeds off of her “transcestrality”. She eats it, digests it. A transpophagy. "Of my story or my stories or our stories, most are alike". Renata speaks about the transgender body’s social and image construct, sexualization, stereotypes, structural transphobia, criminalisation, mass incarceration, violence and the pathological rendering that permeates these bodies, like hers. The Transvestite experience. She calls upon us to look, to observe, to see her Transvestite body. She brings it to us first-hand. The Transvestite Body as an experiment, a guinea pig. It is a Travesturgy, a writeexperience. A transvestite body manifest. The sign blinks TRAVESTI. TRAVESTI. TRAVESTI. - Renata Carvalho
