Three bathrooms, three dances

Abstract

The body occupies spaces of different forms. From its daily movements, it can become an important instrument of spatial perception. This allows reflections that propose other ways of doing architectural design through dialogue with other languages, such as dance. A body that occupies for the first time the space of an unknown bathroom, one of the most general functional places of the house, is instigated to investigate the pre-established daily movements produced by the body that lives there. From observation and interaction with space, the bathroom can be mapped, known, and generate narratives and drawings that reflect other perceptions. As an exercise in acquiring bodily and spatial consciousness, the body inserts itself into this routine of movements and provokes itself. The space of the bathroom then becomes the stage of investigation and experimentation of the relation of these objects with the body that explores.
