Abstract

Multiple strategies featuring contemporary art, particularly the scene, are revisited from the formulations that researchers and academics are proposing recently. Performances and creative practices from Europe and America exploring physical presence and virtual reality, event and extreme reality have been the focus of several discussions. Here are updated through Mexican women artistic creation and the environments in which they are involved. Following the traces of a "life" that gives meaning to the world, as part of the process of "scriptures" are expanded, where “presencialidad”, mediations and precariousness enable dialogues with different realities, emphasizes that new technologies are relevant support to consider.
