Cris Bierrenbach's artwork, which is analyzed in this text, poses a questioning to the relationships between body and gender that we live in today's society through performance, photography and video. Queer theory is used to analyze how it is that the use of the image in this Brazilian artist confronts us with the social and corporal limits of genre. The corporal orifices, the spaces of the body, can enter the norm or they can question it. The various relationships of image and body created by Bierrenbach take us to the limits of each of the social spaces that our body inhabits, to create an artistic space for reflection.
