          Abstract

          A partir de Entre de lado, Measuring blackness and a guide to many other industries e Supõe que a verdade fosse uma mulher… E porque não?, examino de que forma a obra de Eurídice Kala (Maputo, 1987) questiona hegemonias eurocêntricas e masculinistas. Argumento no sentido de se reconhecer a relevância da sua prática para a desconstrução de versões ‘branqueadoras’ da história - incluindo o masculinismo de muitas narrativas anti-coloniais - e para a afirmação de um feminismo interseccional. A esta reflexão subjaz o reconhecimento da importância do diálogo entre práticas artísticas e historiográficas, com impacto ao nível duma descolonização epistémica.

          Translated abstract

          Drawing on Entre de lado, Measuring blackness and a guide to many other industries, and Imagine if truth was a woman... And why not?, I examine the ways in which the work of Eurídice Kala (Maputo, 1987)questions eurocentric and masculinist hegemonies. I argue that her practice is relevant for the deconstruction of ‘whitening’ versions of history - including the masculinism of many anti-colonial narratives - and the affirmation of an intersectional feminism. The analysis is underlined by the acknowledgement that the dialogue between artistic and historiographical practices can be productive, notably at the level of an epistemic decolonization.
