Que (me) faça mover: transmutações entre coreografia do corpo e coreografia da imagem
Abstract
dc:description.abstractThis research, That (Makes) Me Move: Transmutations Between Body Choreography and Image Choreography, was developed within the Graduate Program in Dance (PRODAN) at the Federal University of Bahia (UFBA), under Research Line 1 – Artistic Experiences, Production, and Management in Dance, and supervised by Professor Dr. Daniela Guimarães. The study stems from the following central questions: How can the creative process in dance be transmuted into the creative process in design? How can these practices be interconnected? In what ways does design influence dance, and dance influence design? Is the body that produces design inert? How does this co-implication of practices generate knowledge? Through a theoretical-practical approach, the research explores the intersections between the fields of Dance, Performance Art, Graphic Design/Visual Arts (with a focus on the artist’s book), and Mothering as a political-creative theme. With an implicated methodology, the research was conducted through the development of an inventory entitled Inventoried: Actions for the Materialities of a Solo, which encompassed a cycle of three investigative laboratories. These included an artistic residency, creative journals, performative writing, bodybased creation labs, readings, material gathering, document research (written, oral, visual, and auditory), semi-structured interviews, and cartographic practices. Several artists and scholars served as references and inspiration throughout the research process, including: Regina José Galindo, Berna Reale, Amir Brito Cadôr, Paola Berenstein Jacques, Bell Hooks, Hélio Oiticica, Arthur Bispo do Rosário, Leonilson, Lygia Clark, Paulo Caldas, Paulo Bruscky, Sandra Bonomini, Jacques Derrida, Diana Taylor, Oyèrónké Oyěwùmí, Lia Krücken, Tiago P. Ribeiro, Tonlin Cheng, JoCarla, Rafaela Kalaffa, and Janahina Cavalcante, among others. That (Makes) Me Move emerges as a confluence and maturation of the author’s ongoing professional trajectory, research, and practice—especially in the fields of dance and design. As a result, the project culminated in the creation of the dance-exhibition A Small Survival Manual for Artist Mothers (2024), a series of interconnected actions and eight interdependent artwork-pieces forming a single whole: a performed installation, or rather, a dance-solobook-manifesto that moves and sets in motion.
