This article refers to a section of a master dissertation held at Univates University Center from July 2013 to July 2015. Among the theories of philosophers of difference, including Deleuze and Barthes, the following research problem was taken: How a deaf body is pierced by different means other than the representation? Such a problem unfolds on the following objectives: understanding the ways in which some deaf bodies are unique and how they empower their lives; carto(photo)graphing the affects produced by the encounter between a deaf body and the photography. These carto(photo)graphs were held at different times, with three deaf people in the cities of Lajeado / RS and Estrela / RS, from paths which were traveled using a camera. The encounter with the work "Walking" by Lygia Clark (1964) served to think the route as a work that takes place in the act. In some cases, an unfinished body in motion of constant refusal to fix in many others, only one body captured by stratified lines. At the end of the survey, it's possible to see that the body's release is always difficult, so that it is more fixed in the objectivity and brevity, rather than in what a body is capable of producing as uniqueness.

Keywords : Deaf Body; Punctum; Carto(photo)graph.
