Abstract

This article explores one of the most common strategies to make victims of the conflict in Colombia visible: exposing their faces. Based on Georges Didi-Huberman's concept of overexposure, the effectiveness of this strategy is questioned with respect to various blurring practices that have tried to make victims invisible. In reinterpreting the notion of blurring, it seeks to show the power of thinking of the face as a multiplicity rather than as an identity matrix when it comes to spotlighting the violence that has affected thousands of people for decades.
