This ongoing research project explores the connections between the Amazons, the warrior women of classical mythology, and the Amazon region from an ecofeminist and decolonial perspective. Taking statues and artworks representing these legendary figures as its starting point, the project invites participants to engage with them through participatory artistic practices in both public spaces and museums.

These figures embody gender stereotypes rooted in classical mythology, which is traditionally told from a male perspective. Simultaneously, they are entangled with colonial legacies, as the naming of the Amazon territory was a European projection based on this myth. Thus, they reveal how dominant narratives have long been intertwined to legitimise the exploitation of women's bodies and land. Public spaces and museums are not neutral either; they reflect power dynamics and hierarchies.

Through workshops, artistic walks and experimental city tours organised in collaboration with FLINTA* associations, curatorial initiatives and cultural spaces, participants are invited to encounter the Amazons, question the power dynamics they embody and interrogate the power relations embedded in the spaces in which they are located. Artistic formats include diverse collective and embodied practices, such as somatic exercises, walking paths, storytelling exercises, tactile interactions, speech bubble exercises, Amazon-themed card games and deep listening experiences, which encourage active and experimental engagement with the statues and the surrounding space.
