PERFORMATIVE INFRASTRUCTURE:BODY,TOXICITY AND RESISTANCE

A gesture is a specific bodily movement that reinforces a verbal message or conveys a particular thought or emotion. Gesture may be made with the head, shoulder, or even the legs and feet.

Initially we started with some warm up exercises for some body movement which made us feel relax and calm then we perform some body movement with pairs, in that we were supposed to attach each other back and perform some kind of movement in axis to understand body gesture.

I was specifically focusing on gesture of people walking on railway platform ,then I started collecting some pictures and videos which shows gesture of people walking on railway station.

Then collectively as a group we started creating a space which gives sense of narrow space as compare to our studio in which one can get sense of body gesture after entering into that space.

That space was covered with everyone individual images that they collected for body gesture and videos.

This module helps me to observe more things that is happening around our surrounding and day to day life which we consider as negligible background of our life and the different gesture perform by human beings at different situation and spaces.
