LA CIUDAD DE SANTIAGO RESIGNIFICADA COMO CORPOREIDAD COMUNICACIONAL TEMPORAL EN TIEMPOS DE ESTALLIDO SOCIAL.

The Chilean Social Uprising of October 2019, through its multiple manifestations, has led to transformations in the city, as its architecture has been used as communicational canvases where both the spontaneous temporary facilities, as well as those designed, have allowed having new urban readings. This communication modality shows a porous, active, dynamic society, where longings and hopes need to be addressed and heard. Thus, the urban body is tattooed, expressing the needs of an invisible and unheeded society: architecture, is dressed for the occasion, losing its initial meaning and becoming a means of uncensored citizen communication. From the communicational side of the facilities, we will review three temporary modalities that intervene in the city, redefining it: The urban tattoo as a typology inherent to the Social Uprising coming from street art; the Performances and the human body as a communication tool symbolically arranged in the public space and, finally, the Urban Facilities as the redefinition of a building or public space in the light of an intervention that breaks its original mold. The spirit of change, of renewal, has taken over the city: the urban body enters the maelstrom of permanent transformation, following the dynamic and spontaneous rhythm printed by the citizen's will.
