Abstract
In the current context of women’s bodies being vulnerated in Latin America, we analize the strategies proposed by Angelica Liddell in her work The House of Strength (2009). Through a transit that goes from her personal experiences to the murders of women in Ciudad Juárez, Mexico —taken as a site of origin and limit of that violence—, Liddell shapes a resistance based on the surfaces and the superficial quality of anecdotes, dialogues, news, bodies and images that are part of the work. We confront the aesthetic analysis with the concepts of surface and desire in G. Deleuze, C. Colebrook and E. Grosz.
