Ecosomatic Writing
•Archaeology of an action. Essay I is part of an in progress project called Archaeology of an action that I have been developing since 2022 and that consists of different pieces and essays in relation to questions such as: Is it possible to remember with the body, how does memory inhabit, is remembering a (performative) action, what connecting actions do bodies and territories weave when they meet each other?
Ecosomatic Writing is composed of 9 performance scores displayed in analogical notation, instructions, maps and visual gestures, superimposed on the documentation of an action sequence, trying to assemble the memories and affects that are activated at the moment of performing, but also in the latency of the repertoire and the archive.
90 x 90 cm.
9 double pieces of 30 x 30 cm, cotton paper, tracing paper, ink and waxed thread.
