Small dance for a quarantine period II/ Pequena dança para um estado de quarentena II, is part of a work in progress named as "Small dances for a quarantine period / Pequena dança para um estado de quarentena."

The project consists of a series of videos recorded in a 72m² apartment where I live. Surrounded and confined in this space, I am exploring small dances aligned to audiovisual experimentation, exploring qualities of movements integrated with video editing tools, such as rewind, accelerate, rotate, duplicate, etc. In a looping way, where it is possible to watch the same video sequenced in two parts, we can notice that one part happens in the original flow and the other goes backward. In this way what is provoked is a lack of time perspective. The work selected for this form follows an interaction with sun contact in a regular sunbathing practice, extremely necessary during this quarantine period. The space where the video takes place, a balcony, is the only place within the apartment where it is possible to sunbathe, for about 4 hours in the morning light.

Exploring the contrast of light and shadow, understanding what it awakes when it touches, where it touches and what it does not touch. Small dance for a quarantine period II/ Pequena dança para um estado de quarentena II is the second video that composes the project that continues as a daily exploration.

I keep myself in exploration during the hole quarantine period and the videos will be uploaded in my channel.
