- Abstract
For more than 400 years the inhabitants of the Mariana Islands, the Chamorros, have experienced a continuous process of globalization and adaptive resistence which has come to be defined mainly through exhibition of the body - feminine in kinship relations, and masculine through the physical body - as the matrix of identity and belonging. Following this line of interpretation, we make an argument for the non-centrality of colonial experience in the bodily construction of masculinity through a visual narrative that emerges principally from the exhibition of the physical body.
