At the table, in abyss

Abstract

From the text À Mesa, by the French writer and poet Francis Ponge and published in a collection of texts by Ponge, and from Derrida's book on the writer, entitled Signéponge = Signsponge, the author develops a poetic text in abyss, over the thing and the object, as alterities, their emergence in and for the word, the subject and the signature, both spectating each other and the thing/object, making relationships with the artists' visual arts works: the duo Andréa Hygino and Lz Coimbra, and their series of prints Prova de Estado, Cildo Meireles – and the works Inmensa and Antes –, and Milton Machado – with his work Diáfora – , whose theme is the table and its unfolding in infinities, abysses and sonorities.
