Important poetic features of transcultural fiction, art and cinema include a specific set of tropes, such as the metaphors of dislocation, postcontinental ontology, border, metamorphosis, etc. This refers to the leitmotifs of transit, inbetweenness, deterritorialization, the virtualization of the concepts of home and motherland and the corresponding subjects as the carriers of such sensibility. The article also touches upon some plot elements of transcultural fiction. Specific attention is given to the analysis of trickster or border identity as the main agent of transcultural literature and art, negotiating modernity and the sphere of its otherness. The author defines transculturation not only as an anthropological but also as an epistemic and aesthetic transmodern model, and singles out the main features of decolonial aesthesis, aimed at the liberation of being and perception from the norms and rules of the self-proclaimed modernity. The article considers the shaping and functioning of the main elements of the aesthetics of transculturation in contemporary fiction, art and cinema.
