Um punto saiu (A point comes out) makes a connection between dance and painting, exploring these two arts as a “together”.
About the cooperation between dance-painting, there is a long history, which I find great; Trisha Brown, Carolee Schneemann, Yves Klein,Pollock, Rauschenberg…and even Andy Warhol. Spurred by this history, and by my background as a contemporary dancer, I explore ways to create an archeology of movement which translates the dance into visual signs, and vice versa, the painting into a body event.
The process has been developed following 3 axes:
1. Dance Diagrams > Diagrams based on repetition of a movement structure, in long duration.
2. Painting compositions > Composition based on improvisation movements.
3. Contact Drawings > Participatory drawings based on relation and contact
