“Um ritual é uma
sequência de atividades que envolvem gestos, palavras e objetos, praticado num
lugar isolado e de acordo com uma sequência definida.”
[Dicionário
Merriam-Webster]
Em “Paradigma”, criamos um folklore DIY para
corpos com identidades esbatidas, através de artefactos, narrativas, danças,
rituais e músicas. Paradigma é uma dança de um exotismo de lado nenhum. Um
reclamar ritualista de diferença e cidadania. Uma paisagem criada de um cadavre esquis de referências
paradoxais vindas de lugares faccionais. Uma cerimónia vinda de um
tempo antes da divisão entre arquiteto e construtor onde se produzem símbolos
abstratos com materiais complexos e uma engenharia caseira.

A ritual is a
sequence of activities involving gestures, words, and objects, performed in a
sequestered place, and performed according to set sequence.
[Merriam-Webster
Dictionary]
In Paradigm, we
work on a DIY folklore for bodies with blurry identities, created through
fctional artifacts, narratives, dances, rituals and songs.
Paradigm is a
dance of an exoticism from nowhere. A ritual claim for diference and
citizenship. A landscape created from a cadavre exquis of paradoxical
references coming from the places where we were born, the places where we live,
places we have never been, and most of all, from fctional places. All of them
glued together with daily practice. The body, as a mechanical piece of a bigger
organic body - the stage itself. This body engages in a ceremony with
consequences that are never direct or evident, but it is also a fgure of labor
coming from a time before the division between the architect and the
bricklayer. A working body producing abstract symbols with concrete materials
and a complex homemade engineering.
A body that
through this practice enters a process of abstraction, attempting to escape its
own anthropomorphism.
To be a human, as
to be the theatrical building, disengaged of the pursuit of a (cultural)
essence.
