" Quando nos comunicamos com linguagens sígnicas como a escrita e a figura ilustradora, o intencionado é representado; por sua vez, a representação tem uma “forma” que o caracteriza, tornando-o dependente de um * ato sensível* sujeito a contingência, não sujeito a compreensão mútua, “sendo a idealidade do objeto apenas o seu ser-para uma consciência não empírica”
"Seguindo inicialmente o fio dos argumentos fornecidos no referido livro, só se poderia efetuar este abalo com a ajuda do conceito de signo, que se conserva como diferença entre significante e significado graças a uma outra, a diferença entre o sensível e o inteligível – o significante (sensível) é remetido a um significado (inteligível), mas nesse remetimento o significante continua diferente do significado."

conscious/sentient act
One of the translations of "sensível" is 'sentient', and one of the definitions of 'sentient' is 'conscious' or 'aware'. See Merriam Webster:
Main Entry:1sen£tient
Pronunciation:*sench(*)*nt
Function:adjective
Etymology:Latin sentient-, sentiens, present participle of sentire to feel, perceive * more at SENSE
1 : capable of sensation and of at least rudimentary consciousness *a sentient being* *the conception T of impulsive, instinctive, and sentient life— Susanne K. Langer* *these highly sentient, motile, instinctive, and often intelligent creatures— D.C.Peattie*
***2 a : consciously perceiving : AWARE — used with of *he alone is sentient of the intolerable load— Elinor Wylie* *a boy so sentient of his surroundings— W.A.White* b : conscious or capable of fine distinctions or perceptions***

My first choice would be 'conscious act'.
'Perceptual' would be OK, too, but the Answerer did not support his answer.
