Resumo(s)
Esta investigação parte de uma preocupação ecológica ligada à crise ambiental atual e à forma como esta reflete uma perceção culturalmente enraizada de separação entre o humano e a natureza nas sociedades ocidentais modernas, procurando explorar de que modo a prática artística pode contribuir para reimaginar essa relação. A pesquisa inicia-se na escuta e recolha dos contos tradicionais narrados pela avó materna do autor, entendidos como formas de conhecimento indireto e como mediação entre linguagem e território, humano e não-humano. Partindo dessa particular
tradição oral e procurando reenraizá-la numa experiência sensorial do lugar, desenvolve-se um processo artístico centrado na recolha de matéria, na construção de dispositivos e na criação sonora e visual. Deste percurso emerge uma exploração multidisciplinar que se desdobra em diferentes meios, como a fotografia, o som, a videoinstalação e a curta-metragem. O trabalho desenvolvido não procura ilustrar estes contos de forma direta, mas antes usá-los como ponto de acesso à presença misteriosa, mágica e estranha que os atravessa. O projeto propõe, assim, a prática artística como
espaço de reencontro sensorial com o não-humano e de procura de uma forma de reencantamento do mundo.
This research is grounded in an ecological concern regarding the current environmental crisis and to the way it reflects a culturally rooted perception of separation between human and nature in modern Western societies. It seeks to explore how artistic practice may contribute to reimagining this relationship. The project begins with the listening to and collection of traditional tales narrated by the author’s maternal grandmother, understood as forms of indirect knowledge and as a mediation between language and territory, human and non-human. Drawing on this particular oral tradition, and seeking to ground it in a sensory experience of place, the research develops through an artistic process centred on the gathering of natural matter, the construction of devices, and the creation of sound and image. From this process emerges a multidisciplinary exploration developed across different media, including photography, sound, video installation, and short film. Rather than directly illustrating the tales, the work uses them as a point of access to the mysterious, magical, and uncanny presence that runs through them. The project thus proposes artistic practice as a space for a sensory re-encounter with the non-human and as a search for a form of re-enchantment of the world.
