This manuscript aims to analyze how LGBTQIAP+ youth collectives have produced forms of re-existing violence induced by expressions of gendered necropolitics in Fortaleza. Throughout the article, we take gendered necropolitics as an operational tool of neoliberal rationality, which has aimed, among other things, at exhausting existences positioned as “others” of the bourgeois white cis-hetero-patriarchal standard, such as the peripheral LGBTQIAP+ youth. We chose cartography as the ethos of research-inter(in)vention, from which we foster and compose the “EntreColetivos” network. The analyzes were carried out through field diaries about the meetings with this network of youth collectives. The scenes brought point out the art device as a confrontation with the gendered necropolitics, which unequally devastates certain populations. The artistic movements of “EntreColetivos” sought to make the city accessible to black and LGBTQIAP+ youth, segments to which urban spaces have been historically denied. Thus, we observe that the struggle for survival and re-existence on the margins is not encapsulated in identity guidelines. The “EntreColetivos” showed itself as a network of care and struggle, making art and the occupation of the city a political act of re-existence.
