The Image to the left shows Estefanía wearing a white unitard and mask sitting on a wooden stool, looking at a white board with curvy red and green lines drawn across it. The image to the top-right of the frame shows a hand pointing to a section of the white unitard with skin exposed. The bottom-right image shows a hand with a white glove holding a marker to the white board with curved lines on it.]

Drawing about something felt by Estefanía Rivera Cortés

Estefanía Rivera Cortés

Research and practice of movement goes beyond Dance or the Dance Form. Many artists educated in other branches of art have crossed the lines of their traditional disciplines to play and explore with movement. Estefanía Rivera Cortés embarks in her daily practice of drawing while adding elements of her training in Feldenkrais Method and Alexander Technique. The piece she shares with us is a way of stretching out the limits of these practices. Surpassing dance and drawing to challenge the hyper focus these disciplines have on choreography, performance, shape, lines and/or finished pieces.
