[DES]INTEGRADA: INFLAMAÇÕES ARTÍSTICAS PARA UMA DANÇA COLETIVA

Abstract

The research has as its moving axes ancestry, feminism and the artistic process, aiming at the creation/reflection of/on dancing actions in the face of sexist and ultraconservative postures present in patriarchy. Coletiva Rua das Vadias [name under transformation] – a group of women dedicated to the arts of the body of which I am a member – appears as a place of creative effervescence to think about such actions. Blood trails lead us to the discovery of raped-silenced-murdered bodies by the supremacy of androcentric power, permeating the gestation-creation of dances of (r)existence. Feminist critiques of scientific rationality/objectivity will guide the writing, allowing the text to be contaminated by imagery fragments, in the search for interfaces between text and dance. We chose the e-zine format as support, building a hypertext from the choices and windows opened along the way. The research is spread across #8eight e-zines{and a preview of #9nine for future urgency]. The transit between individual and collective memories will be informed by statistical data, historical facts, documentary and fictional writings around reflections on changes and perpetuations concerning gender violence. The theoretical framework will be composed of feminist theorists, poets and artists, moving between different discursive textures, such as academic text, prose, poetry, images and knowledge incorporated in the presence-action-dance. Different speech bodies connected to question limiting hierarchies of knowing. Which paths to take to meet these voices-movements-bodies? How to ignite transformative desires through artistic actions?
