Abstract
In Colombia, disappearance of people has taken place in a complex ecology of human and non-human, undone, and waste. A landscape in which hidden, buried, and poured bodies circulate in rivers, dumps, escombreras or rubble zones, surplus areas, and particularly in cemeteries, shaping hybrid forms of life and meaning between death. Here, I approach disappearance as a latent phenomenon in the landscape, which, like bodies and identities -of those who are disappeared-, is under violent, continuous, and, in some cases, irreversible transformations. A spatiality in which symbolic charges and embedded materials - those that enable processes of resistance, politicization, and the creation of other forms of the future - are at risk of being radically transformed and disappearing. Thus, this article responds to an ad hoc methodological approach in which through research-creation, and participatory observation, I investigate into different forms of relationship and meaning that disappearance configured among subjects, bodies, their paths, and the landscape.
