Three traditional festivities located in rural territories of the province of Cáceres (Spain) are the setting chosen to observe the processes of expression and re-construction of masculinities projected around Iberian festive rituals. Masculinity manifested from bodily resistance as an attribute that strengthens the stereotypical conception of the masculine, is intertwined with other forms of expression marked by caring relationships between men and a significant sensitivity generated in a context of popular religiosity.

MARIO MORENO IGLESIAS

Since my training as a Graduate in Social and Cultural Anthropology, with a Master in Anthropological Research specialized in the audiovisual field, I have carried out numerous works exhibited on my social networks and I have applied video as a participation tool among adolescents at risk of social exclusion, a group with which I have worked for 18 years. I have won more than thirty awards in photography contests, highlighting the ethnographic content of my works. At the same time, I continue working as a videographer on citizen participation projects in the rural context where I usually live.
