Que su rostro cubra el horizonte (Delight Lab, 2018). La imagen-cuerpo como interrupción del espacio urbano

This article explores the relationship between body and image, through the analysis of the light projection Que su rostro cubra el horizonte (2018), by the chilean art collective Delight Lab, on November 15th, 2018. This intervention is inserted in a field of contemporary photographic practices that manifest as performances. Considering the above, this article proposes to think about the relationship between the photographic image and performance practices, not only as a means of recording and circulating these actions, but also as a way of appearing the body, articulated through the reflection on the resources that, from the embodiment of the photograph, allow its displacement and the rupture of its two-dimensional format. By examining the works Huincha sin fin, by Luz Donoso, and Obra Abierta, by Hernán Parada as precedents, and the light intervention of Delight Lab, this article will outline the relationship between the trajectory of the resources of activisms, the displacement of photographic materiality, and the drifts of the body as a resource for political-aesthetic questioning, through the figure of interruption, which disrupts the experience of the city and bursts into the mechanisms of the image and the dominant gaze.
