Tamara Poblete

Tamara Poblete is a Lecturer in Global Fashion Theory at the University of Amsterdam. Her research explores the resignification of clothing as a tool for protest in feminist uprisings in Latin America from 2015 to the present, through the concept of activismo de género. In this context, clothing and its embodied actions are analysed as forms of aesthetic and political representation, with an emphasis on harnessing the thought and resistance practices of anti-colonial feminisms. She is co-founder of the Chilean transfeminist and transdisciplinary collective Malvestidas (Poorly Dressed).
