Sumario:This paper proposes to analyze a corpus of textual, artistic and visual interventions in the public space that appear during 2018 in Brazil as opposed to the presidential candidate Jair Bolsonaro. Before his victory, various social sectors rejected his candidacy for being dangerous for democracy. In the protests phrases, images, banners were used both in the urban walls and in the bodies of manifestants. The phrase "Ele Não" was used, which did not propose an alternative candidate and became the slogan that could gather divergent opinions. It is argued that this phrase, replicated in different supports, articulated the demands of different social groups. In the interventions in the public space the production of an antagonism is identified. This helped with the identification of a "we" made up of women, homosexuals, blacks, among others. In relation to the methodology, Critical discourse analysis, Visual studies and Sociology are used.
