DELLA LIBERA, Aline Lemos da Cunha. ARTISANAL PRODUCTION WITH WOMEN IN PRISON: REFLECTION AND CREATIVITY OVERCOMING THE PATRIARCHAL LOGIC. Rev. Reflex [online]. 2019, vol.27, n.2, pp.7-21.  Epub Oct 06, 2019. ISSN 1982-9949.  https://doi.org/10.17058/rea.v27i2.12636.

In this article we approach theoretical and methodological assumptions which guided the making of handcraft workshops with women in prison by means of a university outreach program. We problematized imprisonment, analyzing the historic subjugation of women, which has affected manual labor as well. Using recent academic research as a starting point, we incorporated elements from pedagogies that are (re)invented by women when they gather to learn and teach handcrafts. We present subsidies to (re)think artisanal production as a reflective and creative practice, questioning the patriarchal logic characteristics that such activities tend to undertake.

Keywords : Artisanal production; Handcrafts; Manual labor; Women in prison.
