- Abstract
In June 2015, the actress and model Viviany Beleboni staged a crucifixion during the LGBT Pride Parade in São Paulo, Brazil. From this empirical situation, the article seeks to reflect on the mediatic circulation of the transvestite body through the divergent reconfigurations of the sacrality and profanity statutes. Understanding the image of Viviany crucified as an incendiary image, we observe how the media event organizes the processes of circulation of the original image and the images produced by the social actors. It is possible to observe two dynamics, two different projects of interpretation: one demarcates the possibility of "making to exist what exists", which communes with the message of "Christ-transvestite", and the other seeks to "make not to exist what exists", interdicting ways of recognizing the precariousness of the lives of Brazilian transvestites and LGBT populations.
