| dc.description.abstract | This research on sound and visual poetics consists of an investigation on artistic
communicational practices of an activist character. First, with experiments in 2019,
through diversified strategies and proposals for different interlocutors, in different
spaces in the city of Santa Maria, Rio Grande do Sul – streets, museums, art
galleries, university, school, social networks, radio wave space. Subsequently, as a
result of the world scenario presented from 2020, with the SARS-CoV-2 virus
pandemic, which causes the New Coronavirus disease, the COVID-19, the poetic
undergoes significant transformations. In addition to the artistic and communicational
strategies undergoing changes in approach, the space in Santa Maria moves to the
Clube Naturista Colina do Sol (CNCS), located in the municipality of Taquara, also in
Rio Grande do Sul – an naturist place not urbanized and immersed with the wild
environment the least interfered by human action. To approach the construction of
this research, studies on methodology by the researcher and artist Sandra Rey
(1953) are used. As a theoretical foundation, reference is made to the idea of
micropolitics, a concept that refers to philosophers Michel Foucault (1926-1984) and
Gilles Deleuze (1925-1995) and to art critic Suely Rolnik (1948), especially with
regard to bias of everyday life in the context of the research. Activist artistic practices,
on the other hand, are based on the experiences of Brazilian collectives from the
1990’s to today, as seen from the perspective of historiography from the 1950’s
onwards, with Italian autonomist philosophers such as Giorgio Agamben (1942) and
Franco Berardi (1949). To support the notion of Art and Communication, authors
such as Mario Costa (1936), Fred Forest (1933), Christine Mello and Giselle
Beiguelman are based on. The concept of device, on the other hand, emerges from
theoretical research and mediates artistic practices, having as reference Agamben,
Foucault, Vilém Flusser (1920-1991) and Gilbert Simondon (1924-1989). In short,
this master's research involves from performances, through installations, audio, video
and face-to-face interactivity experiments or via virtual networks, in search of a
visibility of everyday micropolitics, with their memories, affections, formalized
impulses of life or ephemeral in moments of encounters. | |
