Writer, chronicler, and visual artist, Pedro Lemebel represented a dissident speech. A discourse in opposition to dictatorship and critical to the patriarchal parameters that crossed the formations of the left. His text Hablo por mi diferencia (I speak for my difference), read in 1986 at Mapocho Train Station, in Santiago, during a leftists meeting, signaled the rejection of his political colleagues towards his homosexuality. Pedro read it wearing red high-heeled shoes. His voice is heard in front of his self-portrait in which the signs of the Communist Party are dressed in lace and sparkles. The two videos presented at Biennial 12 were made one year before the artist's death. Pedro presented Desnudo bajando la Escalera (Naked going down the stairs) in February 2014. The artist, naked, wraps himself in a protective fabric to roll down the burning staircase of the Museum of Contemporary Art. In Abecedário (The abc’s), he lit the letters drawn on a pedestrian walkway that heads to the cemetery with neoprene. That is the place where rest the remains of her mother. These videos imply a deep reflection about life and its ending (the end of his own life, as he knew it was happening). They are about the ritualism of the relationship between the body and the fire.
