SUMMARY:

The experiences that percolate the body can be a vast scenic material. Before following directions from a choreographer by external orientations it is possible to acknowledge someone's own life’s experience as it’s dance motif. But it is important to consider what life is this: how to search, understand, register, organize this material. This study presents rapprochement between Angel Vianna Methodology  and Vipassana Meditation as foundations for dance creation. It registers the process of creation of the dance solo “Uirapuru, Tempo Brasil” sharing the experience of how the body through meditation and body awareness experiments a creative process in relation with the environment and the incidences that affect daily life. Angel Vianna Methodology and Vipassana Meditation are practices that promote self observation and silence. The combination of these two practices gives support to a creative process in face of challenges related to individual and collective experiences. The research has a phenomenological approach and part of the author's, dance artist’s, annotations on the experiences lived in the creation process of “Uirapuru, Tempo Brasil”, having the intent of phenomenological reduction and the processing of body phenomena on the relation of creation routine. Besides the Phenomenology of Perception work from Merleau-Ponty, which offers a theoretical-methodological  basis for research, other references are used, such as: Jorge de Alburquerque Vieira’s studies on dance, Umwelt and complexity; Karenine de Oliveira Porpino’s research on the relation between dance, focus and meditation practices; among others. The dance solo “Uirapuru, Tempo Brasil” has a legend about an amazonian bird in risk of extinction as it’s baseline and is related to recent deforestation, as well as the devaluation of indigenous culture as backbone of brazilian culture. This theme has occurred with continuous dwelling on Angel Vianna Methodology and practice of Vipassana Meditation, which evoke interrogations about the relation of the body with culture and nature. The scenic material was consolidated while bioculture events interfered with the author artist’s reality, having the body constantly sensibilized by the immersion provided by meditation and dance.
