AGRIMENSURA | 2021

Agrimensura consists of an installation, initially activated by the artist and potentially activated by participants over the course of the exhibition. The project investigates the dominant techniques of representation and measurement by way of dance notation, which uses graphic symbols and figures, path mapping, numerical systems, letters and words to communicate dance movement and form. Agrimensura, which in Portuguese means “to survey”, consists of a poetic measurement of a rural terrain: instead of pursuing engineering standards, this measurement is after the migratory movement of birds, the ages of plants and specific human deeds.
