Abstract

This research, of artistic and theoretical essence, suggests ways of investigating the nature and the artistic practice of the dance performer nowadays by reflecting on some of his/her main performance particularities. Centrally based on conversations with six artists of São Paulo city, this study has had as major purpose to regard dancing from the performer\'s perspective. Thus, the research gives voice to six female performers of the contemporary scene, bringing to light considerations on the main issues exposed in their speeches, related to their own work contexts. Furthermore, this study also reflects on the connections between dance theory and practice with the creation of a choreographic solo. (AU)
