Sumario:Queering Thought - Deleuze and the sexes to come. This article argues that queer theory in relation to Judith Butler is unable to account for the complexities of life's creation and immanent potential that exist prior to and in between the hierarchical representations of discourses, language and subjects. This article seeks an opening and understanding of thought as creation, not representation. Through the philosophy of french philosopher Gilles Deleuze (1925-1995) thought is freed from its image and thereby activated in thinking. It is then possible to think and engage in life as becoming; life as consisting of virtual potentials, the alwaysnot-yet-actualised. The article proceeds by activating queer as a philosophical concept: ‘to queer' thus focusing on the ‘to do', not the ‘to be'; and analysing the queer-art-space Warehouse9 as a smooth space, where it is possible to encounter virtual sexes in concordance with sensible signs and aesthetic expressions.
