A transnational feminist artivism platform initiated in Berlin in 2018 by Karne Kunst and Xochicuicatl. Bringing together material from around fifty Latin American feminist collectives, the project connected photography, video, graphic work, zines, textiles and documentation of public actions addressing feminicide, gender violence, inequality, bodily autonomy and collective resistance. Developed through exhibitions, workshops, public encounters and institutional collaborations, the project was repeatedly reactivated across community, cultural and academic contexts. In 2022, 105 photographs and related materials were recontextualised at Universität Heidelberg as Reclaiming the Body: Feminism, Community, and Territory, contributing to the research and discussions that later developed into the academic journal issue MIRADAS 08 (2025) on feminist artivism and decolonial feminism in Latin America.
