This paper reflects on the articulations between image and imaginary by problematizing the gaze as an epistemic category. Faced with complex and temporally diverse realities, we argue for contradiction as a productive condition. First, we comment briefly on Gonzalo Abril’s reflections on the gaze; then, we explain, in synthesis, what Cornelius Castoriadis understands by ensemblist-identitary logic, so we can then contextualize some propositions of Rivera Cusicanqui’s work. In the dialogue and counterpoint between these authors, we seek to highlight the contributions of the Bolivian sociologist’s intellectual production, exploring the powers and complexity of her ch’ixi proposal.
