Entre imagens: estudos de reincorporação para uma composição isadorável

Abstract

This work is an artistic experiment that has the body and the images as a point of contact, realizing how the gestures of the past are embodied and come back to life in a body of the present. The artist who triggers and guides this research is the North American modern dancer Isadora Duncan and her iconographic records of dance throughout her brief life. To this end, I develop a research of images, in websites and books that approach the artist's life, building a gestural album that leads to the transmutations of Isadora's gestures to my body, a male, gay and effeminate body. As a research path, I built a notebook of images and body experiment processes that, throughout the process, triggered two thematic experiments, as animating states of Isadora's dance: nature and sensuality.
