Abstract

This article aims to examine self-representation and (de)subjectivation processes in artistic praxis based on the correspondences between Maria Gabriela Llansol's literary work [O livro das comunidades, Lisboaleipzig, and Contos do mal errante] and Helena Almeida's photoperformances [Desenho Habitado, Ouve-me, e Lavada em Lágrimas]. To do so, we will use the concepts of becoming-woman, rhizome, deterritorialization by Gilles Deleuze and Félix Guattari. It is important for us to observe the possible ethical-aesthetic connections that lead them to think about the critical production of their works closely associated with the fable of the self. We will pay special attention to praxis (artistic and literary) as a device that guides the elements responsible for the production of subjectivity and bodily presentifications as autofiction. In conclusion, the article discusses how self-reflection is fundamental to the becoming of a work of art.
