Existencias abyectas en el registro fotográfico de Lariza Hatrick: hacia una recuperación de la alteridad radical

Abstract

This article aims to reflect on that abject and unintelligible population strip based on someexpressions of the photographic itinerary of the Argentine artist and activist (from La Plata)Lariza Hatrick. Although her portraits capture daily moments of queer, lesbian and transvestiteexistence, we affirm that the relevance of her visual production refers to the possibility ofarousing a radical alterity that transcends the identity nominations that modern taxonomiesoffer as the only way to distribute recognition. By reviewing some photographs by ShirleyBombon (trava sudaca) it emphasizes the need to mainstream the queer perspective with acuir dimension: an attempt to rescue the critical dimension beyond the limit imposed bythe positivity of linguistic meanings. It is affirmed that artistic productions are capable ofsuggesting the power of the inarticulable, an indispensable area for the attitude of revoltand for the creation of the radically new.
