Luciano Feijão (1976) holds a degree in Visual Arts (2004) and a master’s degree in Arts (2014) from Universidade Federal do Espírito Santo (UFES), where he also taught Drawing in the Department of Visual Arts.
His artistic production is focused on drawing and illustration, and he has participated in solo and group exhibitions such as Dos Brasis – arte e pensamento negro; Nordeste Expandido – estratégias de (re)existir; Antianatomia Tropical (2018, with artist Rosana Paulino at OÁ Galeria, Vitória – ES); as well as the Biennial of Illustrations Bratislava – BIB (2021) and the show Transitar o Tempo (2025). He also works as an editorial illustrator, with notable projects including Diário do hospício by Lima Barreto (Borda Editorial), A morte de Ivan Ilitch by Leo Tolstoy (Antofágica), and As almas do povo negro by W. E. B. Du Bois (Veneta). In 2023, he was an artist-in-residence at Pivô Arte e Pesquisa (São Paulo).
Black Antianatomy (2020) is both an artwork and an ongoing research project that, departing from a political proposition concerning the bodily configurations of the Black population, challenges the anatomic concepts historically determined within a centuries-old system of racial domination. By intensifying the construction of a “Black antianatomy” and turning this new structure into a vital force in struggles for emancipation, it simultaneously exposes a racist subjectivity historically systematized by science and by the concepts of normality, health, and biological apparatus.
Black Antianatomy is the radicalization of the struggle against the modern project of extermination of the Black population. A permanent confrontation, occurring before, during, and after processes of enslavement, renewed day after day.
In this way, Black Antianatomy not only detaches itself from a certain historicity to dismantle a continuous anatomical, supremacist, and white normativity, but also singularizes—through the power of an Afro-centered class consciousness—the skin, fibers, muscles, organs, bones, and blood of this “Black antibody.”
