O tempero da arte no feitio da vida: movimentos de uma sapataria artesanal sob medida

Abstract

From the category of "minor art", the shoemaking reaches Art and weaves conversations with Dance, Music, Fashion, Science and Ancestral Knowledge. The concept-practice of the Beauty of Bones is the core and seed in the research: it consists in the commitment to maintain the integrity of bone structures through careful provision of my own footwear, which consists in handmade shoes made under measure. Inspired by the relational objects of Lygia Clark and the psychomagic of Alejandro Jodorowsky, the pieces combine the symbolic and aesthetic dimensions of the shoes and their sensitive affectations, with the pragmatism of foot protection that must permeate the shoes made, first of all, to put on, but also to enhance the artistic expression and vitality of being. To put on your own shoes, first, and aware of the benefits achieved, also to the others: this is the po-ethics proposal of this work. The production of handmade shoes under measure is linked to body production, cultivation of thought seeds, biointeraction in the territory and nutrition of human and non-human relations: to life itself.
