EVENT
2017-2020
Research about what gives identity to the choreographic event, to its structure, its compositional elements, in order to understand how it relates to the political scene (those emancipation processes described by J. Rancière).
It is a series of choreographic utterances and scriptural practice developed over four years in the context of a doctoral reseach, and presented in the form of performative lectures.
GESTURE-SIGNS
2019 - Performative Lecture
(15:00 min)
Conference in which I perform a display of choreographic writing through spoken and recorded voice, video projections, and actions. I brought a word to the scene, IMMIGRANT, to dismember it, open it in half, what does it tell us, what meanings does it hide, what does it mean in history; it is about bringing it up for debate.

RELATIONS BETWEEN
the choreographic event and the political scenario
2020 - Viva Voce Examination
(60:00 min)
Doctoral Artistic Research, exposed as a performative lecture in which I propose choreography as an aesthetic apparatus that give sensible support to an element of the world that did not have it, opening a way to imagine a new future, and a new aesthetics of politics.

A choreographic duality
2019 - Performative Lecture
(20:00 min)
I start sitting, behind me, a video projection of me is running. My voice, from the video, dictates the conference, my body, acts. I ask the spectators to place personal items around the space to interact with them, letting myself be affected by them, by their shape, their placement. I rearrange objects building a tower, a pile of things, a body in which we are represented; an assemblage of affections. The choreographic art gives us an image, a complex configuration (organization) from which we take on an appearance and in which we can understand ourselves as determining parts of a conjunction of particulars.

Images and intervened book
I located all the bizarre, strange, absurd gestures in Kafka's book The Trial. I intervened and crossed out the text in the book, deleting all the paragraphs, except those that described such gestures, then I interpreted and captured them in photographs to make them a manual for interpretation, gestures pending to be reenact, "gestures pending its resolution" (as W. Benjamin said), like signs, words, which the reader can translate.
