El uso de los cinco ritmos de Gabrielle Roth para construir la interpretación corporal de la historia de Ximena del libro “Rompiendo el silencio de niñas, niños y adolescentes ejecutados políticos durante la dictadura cívico militar: 1973-1990”, en la creación escénica “Vuelta de cabeza, volamos la cabeza”

Abstract

This research investigates the creation of a corporal interpretation linked to the historical memory of the Chilean dictatorship (1973-1990), focusing on the figure of Ximena Pizarro, a 7-year-old girl murdered during that period. Through the investigation of historical and testimonial stories and the document “Breaking the silence of children and adolescents executed during the civil-military dictatorship: 1973-1990” (2023), of the Agrupación de Familiares de Ejecutados Políticos, dance is used as a language of denunciation and reflection, with the objective of making visible stories of political violence.The methodological sense created, combines the practice with the theory of the Five Rhythms of Gabrielle Roth, as a tool that connects emotions and external experiences with the corporal narration. Through the scenic laboratory, a body is generated as a living archive, where the historical text is transformed into movement and memory on stage, integrating elements of contemporary dance and Hip Hop, applying a systematization process that allows recording and reflecting on the artistic creation. The work Vuelta de cabeza, volamos la cabeza (2024), is formed as a result of the work done, which uses the body as an interface that exposes the hidden realities of the Chilean dictatorship, proposing a sensory experience that activates the collective and personal memory of the public, creating a reflection on the value of historical memory and demonstrating the power of the performing arts as a means of denunciation and social transformation.
