Abstract
Haptic visuality is for Laura Marks the possibility of vision to be tactile, “as though one were touching a film with one's eyes.” An intercultural visual work, for Marks, more than any other work does this sensory exploration. This article does both: it builds on Marks’s work on haptic visuality and distinguishes its reading of the possibilities of an intercultural work to translate to “an audiovisual medium the knowledge of the body.” Inspired by a relatively recent anthropological school of thought, developed particularly around the works of Eduardo Viveiros de Castro, the article offers new readings of haptic visuality and invites us to think of the political dimension of film and the role of haptic translation as a possibility of decolonization of thought.
