Black inscribed: fictionalizing our stories, strengthening subjectivities
Escrevivências – Oraliture – Black Dramaturgy – Autofiction – Subjectivity
This research aims to investigate the practice of inscribing oneself in the exercise of dramaturgical writing and reflect on how these processes can be connect, as well as impact, influence and grow up the artist's creative work. With different movements, inscribing oneself can provide materials and tools that allow the person who creates, a fertile territory of good living and in constant friction. From what I call the “emptying of the crossings”, dynamics of giving vent to the different provocations that mobilize those who are part of the creative process, to the “reinauguration of a creative landscape”, in which the artist is encouraged to, through her collected materials, fictionalize and propose possibilities for its dramaturgical expression in a way that has not been tried before. The methodology to be launched in this investigation is based on three axes of analysis: the historiographical survey of part of the practical experiences of the Embaraça Group – a Black Theater collective residing in Brasília since 2012 –, the analysis and sharing of the experience of a workshop given by the author with the presence of seven people participating and the reflections of the author herself in the path presented. In this way, I, the group and the workshop become research person that force dialogues to be intertwined with concepts and/or theories. In this way, for the historiographical survey, the project will approach the research centered in person and the discussion of memory from the autoinscription. And for the analysis of the workshop, the project will present the experiences and concepts on which the research use as a methodological path. I propose the hypothesis that those who put themselves on paper, through the inscription of themselves, have their creative quality improve, as well as I try to investigate how the processes of fictionalizing personal materials to performing in scene. To anchor the proposed questions, I will show the dialogue with the following concepts: Self writting, Escrevivências, Oralitures, Black Dramaturgies, Autofiction and Subjectivity. The work is divided into five parts, a structure created to contemplate the clues that weave the research and detail the investigation.
