Ocuprobarão: revirando o arquivo colonial e transtornando suas fantasias

Abstract

Critical review of “Ocuprobarão”, an artistic performance evening promoted by the Vila das Artes Public School of Cinema, at Casa do Barão de Camocim, in Fortaleza. The two performance pieces by Edilson Militão and Pêdra Costa are presented in light of a necropolitical framework that pivots around the return of colonial ghosts and fantasies in modes of controlling dissident bodies in Brazil.
