Cultura Furry e ensino de artes visuais: contextos preocupados com a inclusão de referenciais acolhedores

Abstract

This work aims to address furry culture. It was born from its author's empathy with this contemporary cultural practice, and perceived as a research possibility during training in the Bachelor of Visual Arts. Born in the context of the 1970s, in the United States, and widely spread with the arrival of the global computer network, Furries are present from drawn forms to representations as costumes; In all these representations the cute and graceful forms stand out, however, beyond this, there is a lot of work and mobilization of derived forms of expression. An essayistic character was adopted in this work, as it was understood as the best way to tell this experience.
