Poetic Transits: Across Ink, Flesh, and Pixel

Abstract

This article proposes a reflection on poetic construction through the transit between media in contemporary artistic practice, focusing on the intersections among painting, tattoo, and video art. Anchored in an autobiographical approach, it investigates how the interweaving of analog and digital techniques generates frictions that expand the possibilities of subjectivation and aesthetic invention. The artist’s experience as a subject who creates and simultaneously observes themselves in process is analyzed through works that traverse various supports, challenging disciplinary boundaries and provoking shifts in how art is produced and perceived. Video art is approached not merely as a visual language but as a territory of temporal and affective crossings, capable of disrupting narrative linearity and proposing new modes of presence. Throughout the text, art is discussed as an expanded field of experimentation and thought. In this trajectory, the article unfolds as an exercise in writing-in-transit, permeated by hybrid practices and the urgency to recombine, displace, and re-signify images, materials, and experiences within the contemporary context.
