Abstract

The goal of this research was to investigate the work method with actors from photographic images observation, when the intention is the theatrical creation from the actor perspective. For this, five actresses participated on the practical research implementation through the photographic images observation and everyday situations, as part of actor training. The methodology also covered the understanding of the French artist Sophie Calle job, with regard to her photos and factors related to her creative processes. Thus, a series of procedures have been defined and tested in order to broaden the perception of the actor at the time of observation. So, it was established that the "look" (in order to observe) provides the handling of feelings and memories that participate in the material creation of the actor's work and collaborate with it.
