Resumo: Manuel Talavera Trejo (1949-2017), a Mexican playwright from the Teatro del Norte artistic movement, creates an aesthetic based on absent bodies as a result of the current border dynamics between Mexico and the United States. The playwright presents repetitive elements of popular culture that, from Valenzuela (2020), includes forms of organization of inhabitants (language, traditions, imaginaries, etc.), to exposing violence, security conflicts and historic problems in histories of territorial formation. In this sense, the investigation developed here seeks to create an interdisciplinary cartography of the author's vision on this border, based on his main works, to delve into themes that cross border context and fiction. The main objective was to propose a cartography of the border between Mexico and the United States, based on the representation of the absent body as an aesthetic category, taking as a reference the theatrical work of Manuel Talavera. The selected works are those written or directed between 1999 and 2014, justified methodologically in the period of time in which the author develops the aesthetic category as a consequence of the violence experienced in the region. According to Geirola (2018, p. 93), the discursive voids in the border theater of northern Mexico are so repetitive that they assume, not only these forms of creation of the delimited landmark, but also its expansion to other artistic manifestations across the physical border of the territory with the United States. The studies developed for this thesis on the absent body as an aesthetic category result in a tool that allows a cartography of the imaginary of violence, exposing the author's relationship with themes such as emptiness due to death, the uncertainty of the desert, and the journey without a point of arrival. Developing research on Manuel Talavera's work allowed us to articulate a methodology necessary to study the borders of northern Mexico that can be applied to different regions of Latin America.
