Abstract

This study, developed in Visual Poetics research line, comprises the presentation of the creative process in which a body of artworks, composed by photos and videos, was produced. These works were built through strategies in which the scopic looking merges the poetic, making possible the capture of intimate situations and its exposure through the art object. The pieces developed during the course are divided into four central themes: voyeurism, exhibitionism, surveillance and confession. They organize, structure and shape the artworks produced as well as the texts they are approached in, establishing relations, dialogues and crossings with theoretical and artistic references that permeate them (AU)
