Esta tese trata do peso como força perceptível no desenho, não prescindindo de convocar várias disciplinas artísticas e reflectindo a condição actual do desenho enquanto fenómeno expandido. O facto de o peso aludir à massa dos corpos e acedermos a esse atributo através do tacto, suscita-nos uma reflexão sobre a excessiva valorização da componente visual no desenho, indagando as potencialidades e virtudes de uma relação háptica com o real. A primeira questão tratada prende-se com a percepção do peso, plástico e visual, esclarecendo de que modo os autores modernos o encararam e estabelecendo as bases para novas experiências e representações. O peso enquanto metáfora guia-nos na segunda parte deste trabalho, recenseando as questões filosóficas, religiosas e mitológicas que lhe surgem associadas e evidenciando o facto da força da gravidade se constituir como realidade estruturante da nossa relação com o mundo. Por último, produzimos uma reflexão sobre a substância dos desenhos, a sua natureza material, tentando perceber como essas qualidades físicas promovem uma experiência sensível e uma procura sobre as potencialidades e os limites do nosso próprio corpo. A exposição que acompanha esta tese parte das grandes questões aqui enunciadas, tendo como preocupação central mostrar obras em que o peso origina a tensão criadora, convidando-nos a participar subjectivamente nesse encontro, com a totalidade daquilo que somos.
This paper is a research on the concept of weight as a perceptible force in drawing. Summoning several other artistic disciplines, it is a reflection on the present-day status of drawing as an expanded phenomenon. Because weight is allusive to the mass of a body and we have access to this attribute through touch, we question the excessive valuation of drawing’s visual component while querying the possible virtues and potential of a haptic relation with reality. The first problem we address is the perception of weight, being it plastic or visual, investigating how modern authors have dealt with it, laying the foundations for new experiences and representations. The concept of weight as metaphor guided us through the second part of this paper; charting the philosophical, religious and mythological problems that usually are associated with it, while highlighting the fact that the force of gravity constitutes itself as a structuring reality of our relationship with the world. Finally, we analysed the substance of drawing, its physical nature. Our goal was to understand how these physical properties capacitate a sensible experience, while promoting an exploration of the limits and potential of our body. The exhibition accompanying this thesis is spawn from all these great problems. Its central concern is to show artwork in which weight produces the creative tension, inviting the viewer to subjectively participate in this encounter with the totality of who we are.
