O LIMIAR DA INEXISTÊNCIA: O PREENCHIMENTO DO VAZIO EXISTENCIAL NOS PROCESSOS DO DESENHO EXPANDIDO

Abstract

1.180 / 5.000 The aim of this research was to produce abstract drawings and video art/video performance that were incorporated into an artistic installation. The installation addresses the theme of metaphorical existential emptiness, inspired by the artistic processes of artist Yayoi Kusama, as well as other artists such as Chiharu Shiota, Louise Bourgeois and Hilma af Klint. Through this work, we seek to develop an artistic poetics that is in-depth in understanding the role of art as a human experience, especially in our contemporary context. The research seeks, then, through theoretical and practical development, to explore the concept of open work by Umberto Eco, studies on chance by Fayga Ostrower, and thoughts on drawing by Edith Derdyk. Inserted in the contemporary context in dialogue with conceptual art, the conception of the artistic installation together with the projection of video art, comes from my need to understand art as a human experience and therefore, through the installation, propose an experience to the public, inviting them to reflect on the visceral questions presented and to identify their own concerns and interpretations about the existential void.
