As inscrições no corpo - que transformam cada vez mais, na<br />

socieda<strong>de</strong> atual, <strong>corpos</strong> <strong>em</strong> <strong>pergaminhos</strong> – transformam o sujeito <strong>em</strong><br />

objeto <strong>de</strong> exposição por todo o t<strong>em</strong>po <strong>de</strong> vida do indivíduo e <strong>em</strong> todo e<br />

qualquer espaço por on<strong>de</strong> ele transite.<br />

Assim, a cont<strong>em</strong>poraneida<strong>de</strong> é caracterizada pela arte que transita<br />

sobre os <strong>corpos</strong> dos indivíduos mo<strong>de</strong>rnos, cuja i<strong>de</strong>ntida<strong>de</strong> circunstancial,<br />

efêmera, não-fixa, só encontra como referência estável, lugar <strong>de</strong><br />

ancorag<strong>em</strong> no mundo social, o próprio corpo transformado <strong>em</strong> mosaico,<br />

pergaminho, colcha <strong>de</strong> retalhos pela atuação do indivíduo <strong>de</strong> resignificar<br />

o que está dado, transformando a natureza com as marcas<br />

da cultura, exercendo o seu papel <strong>de</strong> bricoleur do social.<br />

TRANSFORMING BODIES INTO PARCHMENT.<br />

Abstract: Society has always used the body to inscribe its rules, its laws,<br />

placing it un<strong>de</strong>r the law of a culture. The body of the post-mo<strong>de</strong>rn man<br />

turns into parchment where he and society write a text. On it relies the<br />

inscription of everyday events and processes of i<strong>de</strong>ntification of our subjects<br />

carrying increasingly polyphonic bodies. Therefore, the importance of<br />

thinking i<strong>de</strong>ntity of groups or individuals from the tattoo which operates as<br />

a <strong>de</strong>vice for i<strong>de</strong>ntifying both individual and collective. However, if the<br />

construction of i<strong>de</strong>ntity takes as reference the body, how to think the body<br />

and the use one can make of it in post-mo<strong>de</strong>rnity? How to think about a<br />

not-fixing i<strong>de</strong>ntify, circumstantial, disposable, fragmented, attached to a<br />

body which r<strong>em</strong>ains one, undivi<strong>de</strong>d, fixed? The cont<strong>em</strong>porary nature is<br />

characterized by the art which is shown on the bodies of the individuals,<br />

whose circumstantial, not-fixed i<strong>de</strong>ntity find as stable reference, a place of<br />

anchoring in the social world, the own body transformed into mosaic or<br />

parchment by the performance of the individual to re-mean what is given<br />

by exercising his role as social bricoleur.<br />

Keywords: Body. I<strong>de</strong>ntification. Tattooing.<br />

CONVIRTIENDO CUERPOS EN PERGAMINOS<br />

Resumen: La sociedad si<strong>em</strong>pre se utilizó <strong>de</strong>l cuerpo para inscribir sus reglas,<br />

sus leyes colocándolo bajo la ley <strong>de</strong> una cultura. El cuerpo <strong>de</strong>l hombre<br />

postmo<strong>de</strong>rno se convierte en pergamino don<strong>de</strong> él y la sociedad inscriben<br />

um texto. En él resi<strong>de</strong> la inscripción <strong>de</strong> los eventos diarios y <strong>de</strong> los procesos<br />

<strong>de</strong> i<strong>de</strong>ntificación <strong>de</strong> nuestros sujetos portadores <strong>de</strong> cuerpos cada vez más<br />

polifónico. Por eso, la importancia <strong>de</strong> pensar la i<strong>de</strong>ntidad <strong>de</strong> grupos <strong>de</strong><br />

individuos <strong>de</strong>s<strong>de</strong> el tatuaje que opera como dispositivo <strong>de</strong> i<strong>de</strong>ntificación<br />

tanto individual cuanto colectiva. Ora, si la construcción <strong>de</strong> la i<strong>de</strong>ntidad<br />

toma como referencia el cuerpo, ¿cómo pensar el cuerpo y el uso que<br />

hac<strong>em</strong>os <strong>de</strong> él en la postmo<strong>de</strong>rnidad? ¿Cómo pensar una i<strong>de</strong>ntidad no<br />

fijada, circunstancial, <strong>de</strong>sechable, fragmentada, arrestada a un cuerpo que<br />
