Resumo(s)
Esta dissertação investiga a arte urbana como discurso de resistência, entendida como prática estética, cultural e política que transforma o espaço público e dá visibilidade a narrativas marginalizadas. Ao ocupar muros e superfícies da cidade, a arte urbana comunica mensagens de contestação, reforça identidades coletivas e propõe novos modos de apropriação simbólica do espaço. O objetivo central do trabalho é entender se a arte urbana ativista ultrapassa uma função meramente estética e atua de fato como ferramenta crítica e mobilizadora. Para isso, foram definidos objetivos específicos: analisar elementos visuais das obras, identificar temas recorrentes, relacioná-los a contextos sociopolíticos e avaliar a recepção das mensagens por diferentes públicos. A pesquisa adota uma metodologia mista, que combina etnografia, análise de conteúdo e inquéritos online. As obras de arte presentes em Lisboa e Almada foram classificadas em cinco categorias - Metalinguagem, Direitos Humanos, Identidade, Política e Território - e avaliadas através de indicadores qualitativos (Ativador de Curiosidade e Atenção, Inconformismo, Obra no Espaço Público e Eficácia da Mensagem) e quantitativos (Traços Linguísticos, Estado de Conservação, Escala, Core Técnica). Os resultados indicam que categorias como Política e Direitos Humanos apresentam maior eficácia comunicativa, sobretudo quando combinam símbolos reconhecíveis, cores fortes e grande escala. Já categorias como Território e Metalinguagem mostraram menor impacto, evidenciando a influência do contexto e da intenção autoral na clareza da mensagem. É possível concluir que a arte urbana de resistência se afirma como prática híbrida e multidisciplinar, capaz de transformar a paisagem citadina, estimular a reflexão crítica e contribuir para a construção de identidades coletivas, movimentos de resistência e sentimento de pertencimento.
This dissertation investigates urban art as a discourse of resistance, understood as an aesthetic, cultural, and political practice that transforms public space and gives visibility to marginalized narratives. By occupying walls and urban surfaces, urban art communicates messages of dissent, reinforces collective identities, and proposes new modes of symbolic appropriation of space. The main objective of this work is to understand whether activist urban art goes beyond a merely aesthetic function and actually acts as a critical and mobilizing tool. To this end, specific goals were defined: to analyze the visual elements of the artworks, identify recurring themes, relate them to sociopolitical contexts, and assess how different audiences interpret and receive these messages. The research adopts a mixed methodology that combines ethnography, content analysis, and online surveys. Urban artworks found in Lisbon and Almada were classified into five thematic categories - Metalinguage, Human Rights, ldentity, Politics, and Territory- and evaluated using qualitative indicators (Curiosity Trigger, Nonconformity, Artwork in Public Space, and Message Effectiveness) and quantitative ones (Linguistic Features, State of Conservation, Scale, Color, and Technique). The results indicate that categories such as Politics and Human Rights display greater communicative effectiveness, particularly when they combine recognizable symbols, strong colors, and large scale. Meanwhile, categories such as Territory and Metalinguage showed less impact, highlighting the influence of context and authorial intent on message clarity. lt is possible to conclude that urban art of resistance asserts itself as a hybrid and multidisciplinary practice, capable of transforming the cityscape, fostering critical reflection, and contributing to the construction of collective identities, resistance movements, and a sense of belonging.
