Utopia construída corpo a corpo. Pavilhão para a Dança em Leça da Palmeira

Abstract

The present dissertation reminisces on the personal trajectory of the author as a dancer-architect, evoked through the lens of both individual and collective memory. Through an analysis of inherent contradictions, this work delves into the reciprocal influences between the disciplines of Dance and Architecture, elucidating fundamental themes crucial to their comprehension. The imperative to address communal challenges is articulated, advocating for the establishment of an inspirational educational agent geared towards fostering unity among dancers, students, and the community, converging in a singular space, in the pursuit of cultural and social progress.
