DESCRIPTION

The office is an exercise of reflection on the processes of thinking-doing the body. On purpose, it is addressed to all the people who want to rethink their way of perceiving and approaching body language in dance and performance. A methodology based on the technique of contemporary dance, we concepts of alterity (condition of being other) and concepts of Cultural Anthropophagy (artistic trend spread by Brazilian Modernism). This proposal will be updated to the idea of cultural anthropophagy: "eat, digest and appropriate a cultural action" and will be applied to the field of the body in movement, in a hybrid and inclusive way.
