Exotismos
Synopsis
The artist Exotismos arises from Yoná’s ambition to confront stereotypes associated with beauty and aesthetics, which explore the insecurities of self-esteem. With an artistic approach, she creates cuts and colors that transcend visual changes. In a vibrant and intimate setting, the short film “Exotismos” portrays dialogues and transformations that reveal not only the expression of hair but also the individuality of non-conformist bodies, in the cultural effervescence of the capital of Goiás.
