Summary/Abstract: The text analyses the writing and artistic strategies of capture and displacement present in Siksa’s volume Natalia ist sex. Alex ist Freiheit as well as the broader context of Aleksandra Dudczak’s stage activity. First, the author focuses on the phenomenon of the accumulation of pseudonyms, names and characters used by the artist, which are crucial for the development of the book’s protagonist. She then discusses the problem of Siksa’s reclaiming of hate speech to communicate anti-violence and anti-patriarchal content and the ways in which parody functions in the book. Both the accumulation and displacement between various pseudonyms or characters and the reclaiming of hate speech are shown as strategies of engagement with strong political overtones.
