Abstract

The articulating core herein is the relationship representation-body-self-image from a biopolitical perspective. It elaborates on the foundations of authors such as Foucault and Butler on identity as a symbolic and performatively shaped construction, but crosses them with an intersectional and decolonial approach. In other words, it contextualizes the queer perspective in Latin America, and recognizes the term trans as something foreign, which in Colombia and Venezuela is also crossed by hegemonic relations of race, ethnicity and social class.
