Resumen
The colonial matrix of subjectivation, intelligibility and referentiality has operated through the cannibalization of transfeminine corporealities in the establishment of pre-fixed life trajectories. In a temporal framework of hypervisibility, practices of exploration of narratives of precariousness and value extraction have been executed. In latitudes of the Global South, this transphilic loop that oscillates in dichotomous relations of fascination and disgust, capitalizes on necropolitical regimes of agency restriction, amplified by class fragility, anti-sex work respectability politics, racialization and anthropometric taxonomization. The ubiquity of these narratives is present in the circulation of images broadcasted in the media, memes, and the peripheries of the Western art world in the form of extractivist practices. Between the transactivist insurgencies of the 2010s, and through the configuration of online platforms, artists such as Sofia Moreno have questioned the permanence of this regime that contributes to the continuum of trans genocide in Abya Yala territories, repeating the cycles of violence and exposure. Interregionally, fugitive ecosystems have been constellated: online embodiment facilitates new autoethnographic explorations of memory reinvention in futurity, against reification and the regulatory mechanisms deployed in the patriarchal gender binary cistem, as it facilitates instances of encounter and consolidation of pioneering solidarities, beyond geopolitical boundaries and the antagonistic normativity of the IRL algorithm. In the artist's own words: "The trans body has been used as a muse but not as a content creator. It is important for me to consume myself because there is a culture invested in consuming me, and it does not know how to do it.''
