Résumé

The text grounds its methodology in Discourse Analysis. To do so, it mobilizes signifiers with the aim of discursively analyzing the artistic performance of a drag queen. The thesis presented argues that dressing up is a discursive mechanism that creates a symbolic punctum that conceals the traumatic reality of growing up unable to associate with the feminine. It concludes that the drag’s position, as a tension between masculinist formation and its opposite, represents a liminal, dissenting space of hybridity and transfiguration of pain, repression, and loss. The contribution lies in the fact that it is through this artistic practice that the subject of discourse resists and authorizes oneself to act, to signify.
