Exotification is the act of viewing or portraying someone or something as exotic, usually based on preconceived notions or stereotypes. This can lead to objectifying or simplifying a culture, ethnicity, or group of people. It often involves highlighting superficial or perceived differences without understanding the complexities and nuances of the subject.
Exotification reinforces stereotypes by reducing individuals or cultures to superficial, exotic qualities that are often exaggerated or distorted. This perpetuates a one-dimensional view of the group being exoticized, ignoring their diversity and complexity. It can lead to harmful generalizations and reinforces power dynamics where one group is seen as "other" or inferior.
