Frequently Asked Questions

  • Yes.
    My professional and legal name is Luiza Jesus do Prado. (but I was always called Luiza Prado)
    I am not affiliated with individuals with similar names, and I am not responsible for activities, statements, or conduct that are not my own.

  • I explicitly repudiate hate speech, harassment, intimidation, and the incitement of hostility, as well as the dissemination of false or unsubstantiated accusations, whether in artistic, professional, or public contexts.

    My practice is grounded in ethical responsibility, accountability, and respect for due process. I do not endorse, participate in, or legitimize behaviors that promote harm, misinformation, or targeted attacks against individuals or communities.

  • Out of respect for my safety, professional ethics, and legal processes, this space is not used to comment on accusations, conflicts, or defamatory claims.
    This website exists solely to present my work, research, and services.

  • No.
    I do not have, nor have I ever had, any professional, artistic, collaborative, or personal relationship with this individual.
    Any association made between my name and third parties is incorrect and unauthorized. (or anyone related to him)

  • I maintain a firm and explicit position against any form of sexual violation, abuse, coercion, or non-consensual behavior within artistic, performative, or research practices, including shibari, rope work, and other body-based approaches.

    My work is grounded in consent, autonomy, safety, responsibility, and care. Practices that violate these principles are incompatible with my values and professional ethics.

  • I hold a clear and non-negotiable stance against xenophobia, racism, transphobia, and ableism (psychophobia) in all contexts—artistic, professional, educational, and social.

    I do not collaborate with, endorse, or legitimize individuals, projects, or institutions that engage in or tolerate discrimination, violence, or abuse in any form.

  • No.
    I am exclusively responsible for projects, actions, and communications that I directly develop or that are formally signed or credited to me.

  • Not necessarily.
    Mentions, tags, or associations made by third parties do not represent endorsement, partnership, or affiliation.

  • For reasons of safety, privacy, and professional responsibility, not all personal or behind-the-scenes information is shared publicly.

  • This platform is not used to comment on conflicts, accusations, or controversies. My focus here is on my work, research, and professional services.

  • No.
    Although my artistic research may address themes such as the body, gender, and sexuality, my professional services do not involve sexual practices, intimate encounters, or any form of personal exploitation.

  • Throughout my public and artistic career, I have been the target of a campaign of hate, cyberbullying, and disinformation, involving xenophobia, psychophobia, and gender-based violence.

    This situation involved a namesake (a person with the same name) who circulated a false narrative about me while, in practice, concealing and defending a situation of sexual violence that I experienced from her former partner.

    This resulted in emotional, professional, and reputational harm, and highlights how gender-based violence, silencing, and digital harassment operate within social networks and cultural spaces.

    I choose not to disclose names or encourage harassment, but I do not accept the normalization of lies, symbolic violence, or the erasure of survivors.
