Description: Betzamee is a feminist artist and founder of La Movimienta -artistic current that works with the letter as a visual "elementa" (element)-, analyzing the construction of identity as part of the artistic process and proposes collaboration as a formative model. Her art works abound in visual ignominy, with discursive gestures that address feminisms. This book is an investigation in relation to gender that arises from the words of the Spanish language proposing a vocabulariaʺ (vocabulary), a transgender language where words resonate in feminine. "For this artistœ book, Betzamee used as background a book about Andy Warhol, covering its pages with white paint in order to re-write it. She took words that have a masculine grammatical gender and modified them, transforming them to female by switching the Oʺ to Aʺ. The words, by being pronounced in female, enter the social and cultural imaginary, opening up a discussion surrounding the idea of enunciating the world in female." --publisher webpage.
