Abstract

This Post-Doc fellowship aims to conduct a transdisciplinary investigation into studies that encompass the relationships between performativity and field research conducted by Lume Teatro from the perspective of the theme "invisibilities of death". To this end, it seeks in studies of Humanist Geography ways of questioning, expanding and recording procedures that enable creative processes that consider the environmental logics of the investigated spaces. Furthermore, it attempts to expand the very idea of ¿¿field research in the Performing Arts: how to reflect on this type of investigation in the field of arts? In this sense, it aims to establish connections with the group's performative field research work, which in recent years has sought other methodologies of poetic apprehension in which the locus is the initial matrix of creation. In this way, it seeks to capture the multiplicities, interrelations and fluidity that make up the current theme developed by the group through a permanent set of actions to be developed in a Laboratory of Reflections and Performative Practices at Lume Teatro's headquarters.
