This article tackles the visual practices in Chilean poetry in three planes of aesthetic discussion. At first, it proposes a previous analytic conceptualization of the visual image as a form of legibility of poetic writing practices. In second place, it establishes a problematic revision of the visual turn in Chilean poetry, outlining an interpretation of literary historiography outside the frameworks of linear and progressive reading. In third place the article presents a synthetic and non-exhaustive viwe of migrations and visual families, as an instance of legibility about poetic practices that incorporate visuality in writing. From these three areas, we wish to point out a philosophical discussion about image and text based on Chilean poetry
