Its objective is to show how my experiences with racismo, understood as a system of discrimination based on race, which manifests in visible or invisible practices and generates inequalities were transformed into material for artistic creation, especially in XequeMate. These experiences motivated a dialogue with dance and Black dramaturgy, understood as a bodily construction in relation to ancestry. In this context, artistic practice functions as an instrument of denunciation, articulating the political, in resisting racism; the social, in sharing the experiences of the Black community; and the aesthetic, in audiovisual creation, in an art-life relationship, in which both manifest together and cannot be separated, showing how my awakening to Blackness characterized by the process of awareness and affirmation of Black identity in the face of whitening strategies is reflected in the art I produce.

The research has a qualitative approach, with an analytical perspective based on ethnography. The specific objectives are: a) to identify and list students with physical, auditory, and visual disabilities, starting at age 16, who study dance in Uberlândia; b) to conduct interviews with these individuals to find out if they are interested in pursuing a degree in dance at UFU; c) to analyze, based on participant observation and the responses given in semi-structured interviews, whether these individuals face any difficulties in pursuing a degree in dance, what their socioeconomic/family context is, what their experience in dance is, and whether there is an interest in pursuing a degree at UFU. Within the scope of the research, three people were interviewed, whose information supported the reflections presented in the text. The starting point for these reflections was the questions that specified the research problems. Conducting this research made it possible to identify that to reach a university dance course, a person with a disability needs to overcome various obstacles still present in multiple social spaces. It was also noted that despite various inclusion policies existing at UFU, there has been little interest from people with disabilities living in the city in pursuing a degree in dance.

It is a memorial intended to document the development process of this artistic work, which brings together my experiences with dance, from childhood up to the present moment.The guiding question behind the creation of the artistic work was: What is the relationship between pagode baiano and belly dance? The outcome was a dance performance that explores the relationship between these two dance forms and their intersections within the feminine body of a 38 year old woman and mother. This Undergraduate Thesis aims to relate, connect, separate, and provoke - through the notions of confluence and crossroads, and from an autobiographical perspective - questions regarding the decolonial dimension of belly dance and pagode baiano, as well as reflections on feminism and ageism in dance. To this end, the main references are the research and studies of the authors Naiara Assunção (2021), Bárbara Carine (2025), Maryrluce Cerqueira (2019), Janaina Leite (2017), Djamila Ribeiro (2018), and the authors Ramon Grosfoguel (2019), Clebemilton Nascimento (2012), Jarbas Siqueira Ramos (2017), and Antônio Bispo Santos (2023). The temporalities of this writing may shift between past, present, and future, creating a memory that, while allowing for the understanding of linear time, spirals around my dance experiences and my education in the UFU Dance Program.

We analyzed the contributions of Eugenio Barba (2012), Klauss Vianna (1990) and Martha Graham (1984, 1991, 1992, 2002), three historical references that studies and practices address the relationship between body, emotion and scenic presence. We also consider Charles Darwin's (1872) studies on emotional expressions in humans and animals, offering a biological basis for the manifestation of emotions. In addition, we integrate the contributions of Bessel Van der Kolk (2014), who investigates the impact of trauma and emotional experiences on the human body and behavior. The research sought to study how the methodologies of each of the artists mentioned mobilize the body to achieve an expressive state. We reflect on the role of emotions in the creative process, highlighting their importance in building performances that go beyond mere technical execution. And we seek to understand how expressiveness arises from the artist himself. Thus, this study aims to contribute to the understanding of the intersections between theater and dance, highlighting the power of emotional expressiveness in the scene.
