Abstract

Despite the invitation to explore the city freely to build a life in community, as a result of modernity, the universal the subjectivity of that time: male, had the main characteristic of not developing affective bonds with others. Therefore, it would be interesting to think how the female and the abject manage to find a place in cities. This work invites to read the stories “Soy una tonta por quererte” and “Seis tetas”, by the Argentinian writer Camila Sosa Villada to study how the notion of space is built by the abject in the trans subjectivity. This work will highlight some tools used in the exercise of creating space: music, friendship and some figurations, which are socio-affective alternatives to propose new modes of subjectivity, that in a desidentificatory strategy offer a co-option working with and against dominant modes of representation. In short, this work will show how constant change, and the indeterminacy of identity turn tools used by the abject to subvert its erratic course and create bonds, as well as spaces of affection.
