To this end, it is postulated that it is necessary to dismantle the configurations of power that are hidden in the illusory understanding that being a «woman» is an a priori fact, relative to a certain genitality or anatomy. To do this, we start by defining theater as an event that brings worlds into existence (Dubatti, 2011) that maintain a relationship of tension with their field of referentiality and that are always gendered (Richard, 2009). It is assumed, then, that theatrical practice reifies reality and (re)produces naturalized assumptions regarding «woman». Through the analysis of the political poetic operations that the play proposes, it is concluded that the modern figure of the “uncontrollable female body gives coherence to the search for male power” (Masiello, 1997, p. 122) and functions as a naturalistic metaphor of the political fact of women´s domination. Este trabajo busca problematizar las construcciones discursivas en torno a la “mujer”, producidas en y por el unipersonal de teatro Bajo un sol de sílice presentado en el “Festival de la Mujer” de la Comedia Municipal de La Plata en 2017. Con este fin, se postula que es necesario desarticular las configuraciones de poder que se ocultan en el ilusorio sobreentendido de que ser “mujer” es un dato a priori, relativo a cierta genitalidad o anatomía. Para ello, se parte de definir al teatro como un acontecimiento que pone mundos a existir (Dubatti, 2011), que mantienen una relación de tensión con su campo de referencialidad y que están siempre generizados (Richard, 2009). Se entiende, entonces, que la práctica teatral reifica la realidad y (re)produce asunciones naturalizadas respecto de la “mujer”. A través del análisis de las operaciones político-poéticas que la obra propone, se concluye que en ella la figura moderna del “incontrolable cuerpo femenino otorga coherencia a la búsqueda de poder masculino” (Masiello, 1997, p. 122) y funciona como metáfora naturalista del hecho político de dominación de las mujeres.  Editorial de la Facultad de Artes 2024-07-05 info:eu-repo/semantics/article info:eu-repo/semantics/publishedVersion Double-Blind Peer Review Paper Artículo revisados por pares (doble ciego) application/pdf text/html application/epub+zip https://revistas.unc.edu.ar/index.php/avances/article/view/45510 Avances; Núm. 33 (2024); 241-255 2718-6555 1667-927X spa https://revistas.unc.edu.ar/index.php/avances/article/view/45510/45636 https://revistas.unc.edu.ar/index.php/avances/article/view/45510/45637 https://revistas.unc.edu.ar/index.php/avances/article/view/45510/45638 Derechos de autor 2024 María Guimarey https://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-nc-sa/4.0
