Abstract(s)
La femme-animal traverse l’oeuvre de Graça Morais depuis les années 80. Être hybride, à mi-chemin entre humain, animal, et parfois végétal ou surnaturel, elle semble dotée d’un pouvoir salvateur. Liée à la terre, garante de la mémoire, son pouvoir d’enfantement la rattache à l’avenir, lui conférant un don de prémonition. Graça Morais s’identifie souvent aux animaux de Trás-os-Montes, renforçant son lien avec sa terre natale. Cette femme-animal s’enracine dans le primitivisme surréaliste et l’anthropologie de Lévi-Strauss, actualisés par des artistes des années 60.
The woman-animal has been recurring in Graça Morais’ work since the 1980s. A hybrid being, part human, part animal, and sometimes vegetal or supernatural, she appears endowed with a salvific power. Connected to the earth and a guardian of memory, her power of creation ties her to the future, giving her a gift of premonition. Graça Morais often identifies with the animals of Trás-os-Montes, reinforcing her bond with her homeland. This woman-animal is rooted in surrealist primitiv-ism and the anthropology of Lévi-Strauss, up-dated by artists of the 1960s.
