This article will expose the loss of naivety or evidence (Maya, 2006) in Pablo Montoya's novel Triptych of Infamy. The evidence is a notion that attempt to demonstrate that both the writer and the painter-characters, whose visual works favor the unfolding of the novel plot, are community beings and mediating artists, who take the content of their creations with a critical perspective from a social reality, taking distance from it without imitating it, but refracting it. This process leaves on record that the paintings and the novel are stripped of ingenuity.
