Resumo: | The images by the visual artist Kgomotso Neto reveal African decolonial narratives and aesthetic practices represented by new markers of freedom and by the record of everyday life in South African townships and urban centers. The article observes how places, symbols and identities are taken in his photographs, emphasizing the ways in which blackness is per- ceived and constructed through a lens which reveals new ways of contesting the colonial legacy. Based on the analysis of two of his artistic projects, the text argues that his transit through different references and languages and his intimate relationship with urban daily life allow him to play games with the representations of bodies and places, inviting us to perceiving lifestyles, freedom and fashion as space of struggle and resistance, with which the artist seeks to point out and overcome gaps and colonial oppressions. |

As imagens do artista visual Kgomotso Neto revelam práticas narrativas e estéticas decoloniais africanas representadas a partir de novos marcadores de liberdade e do registro da vida cotidiana nas townships e centros urbanos da África do Sul. O artigo faz uma leitura dos lugares, simbologias e identidades a partir das suas fotografias, enfatizando os modos como a negritude é percebida e construída através de uma lente que dá a ver novas formas de contestação do legado colonial. A partir da análise de dois projetos do artista, o texto argumenta que seu trânsito por distintas referências e linguagens e sua relação íntima com o cotidiano urbano lhe permitem realizar jogos com as representações de corpos e de espaços, convidando-nos a perceber estilos de vida, de liberdade e de moda como lugares de luta e de resistência, com os quais busca apontar e ultrapassar lacunas e opressões coloniais.PEPG COS-PUC-SP2021-07-07info:eu-repo/semantics/articleinfo:eu-repo/semantics/publishedVersionapplication/pdfimage/jpegimage/jpegimage/jpegimage/jpeghttps://revistas.pucsp.br/index.php/galaxia/article/view/50376Galaxia; No. 46 (2021)GALÁxIA.
