This essay uses the category of ts’íib to examine works by two author/artists from Chi Xot (San Juan Comalapa, Chimaltenango, Guatemala), Negma Coy and Edgar Calel. As seen in works by Maya intellectuals Irma Otzoy, Gaspar Pedro González, and Pedro Uc Be, ts’íib is an understanding of Maya artistic and cultural production that includes and exceeds the written word. As such, by considering these works as ts’íib, we argue that one finds that these authors reveal how writing in Latin script is simply another tool in relation to other textualities that all participate within the same space of enjoyment and learning.Este ensayo examina la obra de los autores-artistas Negma Coy y Edgar Calel, originarios de Chi Xot (San Juan Comalapa, Chimaltenango, Guatemala), a través del ts’íib. Irma Otzoy, Gaspar Pedro González y Pedro Uc Be, intelectuales mayas, explican el ts’íib como una producción artística que rebasa los límites de la palabra escrita. El ts’íib revela la palabra escrita, la grafía latina específicamente, como un instrumento más dentro de otras textualidades que participan en la creación de se mismo espacio de deleite y aprendizaje.
