The teacher-artist-researcher and the creative process in dance with children

Resumo

Aiming the growth of a vivid artistic practice, well grounded in dialogues with pedagogical theories, the present study was promoted based on the creative process project in Dance previously developed with the ending years of the Elementary School. This project explores the experience of a teacher-artist-researcher who acts as mediator of the creation of the students, considering the factors that influence the transit between singularities/collectivities and some elements that belong to children's universe: reflections about playing, the period of childhood and the children as protagonist of their dance creations, emphasizing the interactions between art and life.
