This is an introduction to a series of artistic photos of statues of the human body (in Spain). The guy uses "visibilise" a lot and it makes sense, even though its kind of a made up word (like visibilising the invisible, etc.). But then here, I've got a bit lost...(sorry the sentence is so long)
Una de las singularidades más destacables del fenómeno del cuerpo humano como realidad visible (y **visibilizadora**) es la complejidad del modo como lo experimentamos, ya que es preciso distinguir entre la visibilidad del propio cuerpo, siempre muy fragmentaria y segmentada, sugerida, indicada y “devuelta” por otros objetos, más que directamente alcanzable o tematizable por sí misma, de la visibilidad del cuerpo o del rostro de otro.

No problem at all, Lisa!! ... I guess the meaning here is that the human body is not only visible (that can be seen), but is also visibilising (allows seeing what-is-not the body; i.e., reality, space ...depending on the text). Have fun! ...it sounds like an interesting text!

Note from asker:
Hi Quim, I think you might be right. I'll see if anything else comes up, but right now visibilising seems like the answer. Thanks |
