UM PUNTO SAIU
Dance Research
Choreographic Center, Rio de Janeiro
2017

“Um ponto saiu” (A Point Emerges) investigates the relationship between dance and painting—a dialogue rooted in a rich artistic history that continues to inspire my practice, from Trisha Brown and Carolee Schneemann to Yves Klein, Jackson Pollock, Robert Rauschenberg, and even Andy Warhol. The project is part of an ongoing personal research into the archaeologies of movement, translating dance into visual traces and painting into a bodily event


The process developed through three interconnected axes:
-
Dance Diagrams — drawings generated through the repetition of movements over extended durations, tracing the body’s score in space.
-
Painting Compositions — created through improvisation, spontaneous gestures and movements.
-
Contact Drawings — participatory drawings rooted in relation and contact and performed together with the public.
