“Oid’água "a água em atmosfera de ataque" : poéticas do corpo-encruzilhada em performatividade

Abstract

The following research objective is describing the formative processes which intersect and organize themselves in front of the creation that arises from the autobiographic memories flow. This study also raises considerations under a philosophic-theoretical perspective over the contemporaneity approaching decolonial and emancipative thoughts, substantiating itself in the Exu (orisha of paths and fire) crossroads as a place of conceptual and politicalepistemological affirmation. Besides that, the work investigates the research and experimentation processes which produced an identity and poetic work Oid’água, constructed over the past years (2019 and 2020). Oid’água is a visual and ethnographic writing crossed by the persona Pirigo, which in this proposal configurates itself as a corpomídia (GREINER, 2005) and body-crossroads (RUFINO, 2019), because it aims to discuss here how the crossway of memories, sound and visual images, during a creative process of ritualization, it brings to light ancestors’ reminiscences, myths and cosmological crossings. Leaving from this condition it is possible to comprehend an extended journey through the conclusion of the Theater Degree at UFRN (Federal University of Rio Grande do Norte). Based on methodological junctions of a body "in a state of attack", this work describes and reflects on the creative process, taking as an expressive matter the poetics of the creative bodies of Afro-Indian women.
