Abstract

TELES, Elis  and  FRANCA, Maíra. What Now, Who Are We at Each Meeting?: Dancing and Dissenting Care from Within. Pesqui. prát. psicossociais [online]. 2020, vol.15, n.3, pp. 1-12. ISSN 1809-8908.

The proposal of this article is following the action of dissenting-from-within (Maria Puig de la Bellacasa and Donna Haraway), as a clinical operator in works we developed with belly dancing and massages, coming up with methods of meeting and intervention. Dissenting-from-within is part of care dynamic, understood here as a vital interdependence mesh in which conflicting and disharmonious aspects are included. In our works, marks of individual and collective experiences come in and make us get in touch with dimensions that diverge, tension, discomfort. Following feminist epistemologies and the PesquisarCOM method (Moraes), we make use of two fictional figures that help execute on writing the action of dissenting, in a localized, embodied and partial way. The inside notion is thought as "within relationships", including its tensions and possibilities. Therefore, this article endorses the idea that living and dying well in this world means extending and sustaining the action of dissenting-from-within.

Keywords : Care; Mark; Dissenting-from-within.
