Pontilhados: dançando experiências humanas em mundos desumanos

Abstract

This research, developed in a professional dance context, has as its central point the itinerant dance work of urban intervention: Pontilhados – human interventions in urban environments. The work was conceived by me in partnership with artists from the Experimental Group, of which I have been the director since its creation in 1993. Therefore, this journey of almost 30 decades appears in a strong way during this word dance, as it is also a a walk that intertwines with the history of the group residing in the city of Recife. In Experimental's repertoire, the dramaturgical choices ended up creating a chronicle of the city, and only from the experiences danced in our city came the need to dialogue with other urban centers in our country. The research Pontilhados – dancing human experiences in inhuman worlds dialogues with this artistic journey through which the work has passed, addressing recurring themes that show us a Brazil of so many contrasts, fractures, cruelties, inhumanities.My main experience was the city of Salvador, where I had the opportunity to get closer to artists and people who are and are all in this world of inhumanity.
