Poéticas do corpo intempestivo: compossibilidades

Abstract

The proposal of this dissertation is to present a cartography (Rolnik, 2016) grounded in a concept of multiplicity (Deleuze and Guattari, 2010), which is invented (Kastrup, 2012) through different layers of writing (Derrida, 1995), composing a kind of catalogue: a collection of pieces, zones, and states (Nancy, 2012). The untimely body is designated and developed through counter-histories, unfolding across different problematics. It is articulated in poetics whose performance becomes possible through the intercession of José Gil (2013), Friedrich Nietzsche (1999), Peter Pál Pelbart (2015), and Gilles Deleuze and Félix Guattari (2010), drawing on the concept of the untimely. Writing, understood as poetics of the untimely body, takes the form of compossibilities (Pelbart, 2015). These are composed of a series of aesthetic and cultural practices drawn from the history of Western painting, from the customs of Brazilian Indigenous peoples of different ethnicities, from decolonial performative acts, from the visual and contingent dynamics of concrete poetry, as well as from childhood memories and from the author’s formative and productive trajectories. The author, who also inscribes themself in the act, becomes writing, structuring and de-structuring language.
