Alla luce del concetto di intercorporeità, il saggio esplora l’utilizzo della maschera – attributo identificativo di diversi movimenti di protesta – nei progetti artistici del collettivo Mongrel, delle Pussy Riot, di Jemima Wyman e di Zach Blas, che la rielaborano come dispositivo di costruzione di un’identità collettiva utile a smantellare le categorie discriminatorie di etnia, genere, classe e orientamento sessuale presenti nella società contemporanea. Nei lavori analizzati, la maschera permette di unire o, addirittura, ‘cucire’ simbolicamente tra loro i corpi dei manifestanti, così da realizzare un’anatomia ibrida, che affronta le differenze socio-culturali da una prospettiva alternativa e non gerarchizzante.
