The Comic Body: a dip in the clown's rite
Clown; Comic Body; Memory; Affections; Organicity;
The waters that move this research in progress are born of the desire to reflect on the language of the clown. We focus on the comic body and seek to investigate it as a power for artistic creation highlighting the research of the collective of the 'Clowns Company of Paraguay'. We aim with this study to point out creative possibilities of discovering this comic body searching for an organicity that evolves in a laughable state. For this, we navigate through the lands-dreams of a clown-researcher, protagonist of the spectacle of the fruit of this journey, stirring its memories-waters that have helped us to unravel the nature of the ancestral land that inhabits it, a land that transcends the sense of firmness and Assumes a much more rapid quality. We believe that research on the universe of the clown in the academic world can bring about a rich exchange of experiences, as well as sharpen and encourage other artists to find their way of speaking and recording their artistic work process. Finally, we work from the perspective of theater as an encounter and study the affects that permeate the clown's liquid mask.
