Mujeres que Investigan Mujeres

The project is grounded in the idea that research can be understood not only as an academic practice, but also as a creative, political, and situated process. Rather than presenting finished results, the exhibition highlights the methodologies, decisions, and forms of documentation that shape the production of knowledge.

The curatorial approach is informed by feminist epistemologies, particularly Donna Haraway’s concept of situated knowledge, which emphasizes that knowledge is always produced from specific social and political positions. In this sense, the exhibition seeks to make visible the role of women not only as subjects of research but also as active producers of knowledge.

The works on display include field notebooks, research diaries, photographic documentation, archival materials, maps, and other visual records generated during the research process. These materials are not presented as artworks in the conventional sense; instead, they function as documents of thinking and inquiry, offering insight into how research questions emerge, evolve, and take form.

The exhibition space becomes a site where academic research is translated into visual and documentary forms, allowing visitors to engage with the investigative process itself. By foregrounding these materials, the project invites audiences to consider research as a practice that unfolds through observation, dialogue, and reflection.

Organized around the conceptual axes of labor and territory, the projects explore social interactions, community dynamics, and the relationships researchers build with the contexts they study. Together, they highlight the ways feminist perspectives shape both the questions researchers ask and the methods they use.

Ultimately, Women Researching Women proposes the exhibition as a space for dialogue between research, visual documentation, and public engagement, while underscoring the importance of supporting and making visible the work of women researchers.
