Abstract

Based on both her own and others pieces of language, (KOP, Luz Pichel, Rimbaud, Delta 9, Daniel Durand, Hélio Oiticica, Fernanda Laguna), En sí del no questions the possibility of a relationship between poetry and insurrection, fire and poetic image, beyond the analogy of both as events that transform the understanding of a given (semantic or political) order, within a genealogy of negation. This it could well start with the Paris Commune and reach the first quarter of the 21st century, pierced by the disruptions of feminism, tentatively pushing the notion of “expanded writing” towards the world understood as the expressive mold and unmold of the language in which poems and riots are emitted.
