About the bodies and the genders persist the perspectives on the identities of gender marked by the fixed materiality of the bodies. They are essentialist views that think sex, gender and sexuality in a logical, immutable and natural sequence. I argue in this work that these perspectives limit the understanding about the different ways of living and experiencing the corporalities and the genders, promoting the erasure of subjects that contradict this logic. From Drags experiences I try to understand and know the Drag scene of Santa Maria - RS. So, in 2017 and 2018, the ethnographic study was developed, using participant and online observation of open and semi-structured interviews. Through the participant observation and online, I map the Drag scene, focusing on how the Drags that compose it interact with the urban spaces and the digital media, suggesting the constitution of a Drag circuit in an on-offline continuous. This circuit materializes in the city's plots in spaces with performances, interactions and sociabilities Drag, as well as in the digital media with the experience of Drags in their profiles and channels on Facebook, Instagram and Youtube. Still, I highlight the production of a Drag body reflecting on body and gender, seeking to think a denatured way, evidencing the displacement of the essentialist logic about sex, gender and sexuality through the fabrication of a Drag body and the constructed character of the dimensions of gender through socio-cultural instances. I focus on changes in the patterns of Drag ―transformations‖, since performing Drag does not currently assume a certain sexual and gender identity, and also leads to self-denominations of woman and men artists like Drags Queer.
