CARTAGENA, María Fernanda. La Suerte: transits between art and activism. Índex [online]. 2018, n.6, pp.38-42. ISSN 2477-9199.  https://doi.org/10.26807/cav.v0i06.162.

The aesthetic-political practice of La Suerte (Sofía Acosta Varea, Quito, 1988) is an important reference within the artistic milieu and the emerging citizen movements that have achieved great prominence during the last decade, by con-ceiving new modes of organization, collaboration and critical and creative intervention pursuing social transformation. Through diverse artistic languages, morphologies, media and tactics, La Suerte has contributed to shaping renewed and moving imaginaries that accompany the struggles for women’s and nature’s rights. The following is a review of some of her most significant proposals, marked by her vital experience as a woman artist and activist. This double inscription has led her to important reflections, turns and positions that inform the multiple ways in which she walks between and manages to impact the field of art and social movements.

Palabras clave : Activism; street art; urban art; graffiti; feminism; social transformation; post-extractivism; ecofeminism.
