Figuración posthumanimal. Una mirada sobre la obra visual y performática de El Pelele
Critical Posthumanism, referenced by Rosi Braidotti, questions the category of “the human” on which was established a system of classification and hierarchy among the living. Art has joined to this, exploring the ways in which posthuman subjectivities challenge traditional human/animal distinctions. This article proposes the posthumanimal figuration to conceptualize contemporary alternative subjectivity, which allows characterizing posthumanimal hybridization, as a human-animal co-constitution, and posthumananimal becoming, in terms of a transformation of the subject on itself and with others. The visual and performative work of the artist El Pelele accounts for this posthumanimal animal figuration as experimentation and artistic-political imagination.
