Este projeto é constituído por uma pesquisa teórica que acompanha o projeto fotográfico Para Além da Forma, sendo composto por duas partes, a primeira teórica e a segunda prática, com o propósito de analisar os estereótipos associados a pessoas pertencentes à Comunidade LGBT+, em conjunto com a criação de um espaço para que pessoas queer se pudessem expressar livremente, longe de preconceitos. A parte teórica tem como objetivo servir de suporte à parte prática, ao procurar analisar os estereótipos associados a pessoas queer, mais especificamente a homens gay, mulheres lésbicas, pessoas bissexuais e pessoas trans. Inicialmente, procurou-se localizar a origem desses estereótipos relacionando-os com os criados pela misoginia. Foram de seguida utilizados os estudos científicos The Relationship between Masculinity and Internalized Homophobia amongst Australian Gay Men (2020, Jack Thepsourinthone, Tinashe Dune, Pranee Liamputtong & Amir Arora), Homosexuality in TV Situation Comedies: Characters and Verbal Comments (2005, Gregory Fouts, PhD & Rebecca Inch, BA), Why Visibility Matters: The impact of the rise of LGBT+ representation in the media (2017, Jennifer O’Brien, PhD), Lesbian Stereotypes (1992, Michele Eliason, PhD, Carol Donelan, MA & Carla Randall, MSN), Stereotype Deduction About Bisexual Women (2018, Alon Zivony & Tamar Saguy), com o propósito de identificar os preconceitos associados a cada um destes grupos. Foram também identificadas referências fotográficas e cinematográficas que podem ser consideradas uma representação positiva da comunidade LGBT+, com base na perspetiva de que continham uma representatividade mais variada e baseada na realidade, do que dependente de clichés. A parte prática consiste num projeto fotográfico que teve como propósito proporcionar um espaço seguro, no qual as pessoas queer fotografadas se pudessem manifestar livremente, permitindo-lhes expressar a sua individualidade, e consequentemente demonstrar que a Comunidade LGBT+ não deve ser definida por um conjunto de estereótipos, sejam eles negativos ou positivos.
This project consists of a theoretical research that fundaments the photographic project Para Além da Forma, and is composed of two parts, the first theoretical and the second practical, with the purpose of analysing the stereotypes associated with the LGBT+ Community, as well as creating a space where queer people can express themselves freely, away from prejudice. The theoretical part aims to support the practical part, by seeking to analyse the stereotypes associated with queer people, specifically gay men, lesbian women, bisexual people and trans people. I began by finding the origin of these stereotypes by correlating them with those created by misogyny. The scientific studies The Relationship between Masculinity and Internalized Homophobia amongst Australian Gay Men (2020, Jack Thepsourinthone, Tinashe Dune, Pranee Liamputtong & Amir Arora), Homosexuality in TV Situation Comedies: Characters and Verbal Comments (2005, Gregory Fouts, PhD & Rebecca Inch, BA), Why Visibility Matters: The impact of the rise of LGBT+ representation in the media (2017, Jennifer O’Brien, PhD), Lesbian Stereotypes (1992, Michele Eliason, PhD, Carol Donelan, MA & Carla Randall, MSN), Stereotype Deduction About Bisexual Women (2018, Alon Zivony & Tamar Saguy) were then used with the purpose of identifying the prejudices associated with each group. Photographic and cinematographic references were also identified with what can be considered as a positive representation of the LGBT+ community, based on the perspective that it contained a more varied representation based on reality, rather than relying on clichés. The practical part consists of a photographic project whose purpose was to offer a safe space, in which the queer people photographed could express themselves freely, so that they could express their individuality, and consequently demonstrate that the LGBT+ Community should not be defined by one set of stereotypes, whether negative or positive.
