Abstract

In creating contemporary dance methods are usually open, so wide that the way to get to set a framework for creating generates the work of developing a particular method. The dance styles that have a method for creation, Otherwise, seek within a defined logic try new elements, new sings for the same movement, giving the possibility of the channel the creativity for creating the content of the performance. Thus, my proposal is to create a solo contemporary dance using structures and methods of creation from a special form of oriental art, Indian dance, from the point of view of contemporary western Brazilian dance without concerns about playing the Indian aesthetic context or remain in coding peculiar to this art, but focusing on me in my creative impulses provided by living in this universe to create a solo contemporary dance.
