| dc.description.abstract | The present work is the presentation of an experience report on how to complete
the bachelor's degree in dance at the Center for Arts and Letters (CAL) of the
Federal University of Santa Maria (UFSM). It is a study that addresses a creative
process in contemporary art under the bias of a video performance, anchored
above all, in Archer, Rey, Leote and Codevilla. The work resulting from the
creative process was called "Fruit of your blood, woman". The intention sought to
investigate the concept of sacred in contexts of the female universe, relating
menstrual blood to the figure of a tree. This is a hose that is in the same residence
in which the author also lives, passing through the last four generations of women
from the artist's maternal family, including the author herself. The work was
based, methodologically, on the writing of autobiographical diaries that reflected
the relationship of the author with menstruation, with the tree hose, with the last
generations of women from the maternal part of her family, also, with the universe
of the sacred itself, referred to mainly in Calado. In addition, the bibliographic
review of the concept of sacred, especially based on Eliade, and its possible
developments in feminine and tree contexts, mainly anchored in Estés and Owen,
contributed to the theoretical-practical developments of the work. The reflections
contemplated in this writing pointed to the numerous creative and sacred
processes that involve performances, being a woman and being a mother. In
addition, the relationships found directed the processes to demonstrate the
connection between blood and genealogy roots glimpsed in the hose figure. | |
