The objective of the present investigation was to explore the recent artistic production in Peru around sexual diversity, specifically about its ability to transgress social representation systems, understood as systems that install ‘truth’ in society's common sense. Generally based on essentialist assumptions such as stereotypes, which particularly, place sexual diversity in marginalization and in the non-recognition of their rights; through the analysis of images of aesthetic proposals and the speeches of training artists, self-taught artists, activists, etc. To this end, the research was conducted with a qualitative approach and semi-structured interviews, that were designed to openly explore the research problem. Likewise, an analysis of the images was made as discourse that complemented the findings. The results are divided into three dimensions: 1) art, activism and sexual diversity in Peru, 2) revolt to social representation in art: experiences in the Peruvian context, and 3) collective, community and interdisciplinary artistic practice: new creative horizons. In these, they reflect that activist and artistic practices around sexual diversity are in a process of change, in principle, by the exhaustion of the conventional ways in which activism operates, and on the other, by the logic of the neoliberalist market that appropriates the struggles for the recognition of identities, this within the framework of a growing aestheticization, sale and consumption of life models. Where, cultural productions around sexual diversity have as their main concern to transgress the systems of representation that produce images, stereotypes and hegemonic identities, from the mechanisms of representation itself, proliferating new modes of representation and subjectivity.
