A CORPO A FORA é uma ação de internacionalização, um exercício de imaginar e criar políticas de aproximação das artes cênicas brasileiras para além de nossas fronteiras.
Ela surge como consequência do trabalho entre a Produtora CORPO RASTREADO (corporastreado.com) e artistas das artes da cena, que realizam em parceria uma ação continuada para o desenvolvimento de suas trajetórias artísticas.
Somos uma rede de produtores/artistas que planejam, implementam e acreditam na cooperação entre os diferentes corpos como primeira matéria para a criação.
Dentro dessa perspectiva, de criar ações que possam fomentar nossos trabalhos, desenvolvemos em 2020 a ação de internacionalização denominada FarOFFa (faroffasp.com.br), e através dela realizamos diferentes formas de encontro entre artistas, público, produtores e programadores, inclusive durante o isolamento social no contexto da Covid-19, tendo como ação principal a aproximação de ideias e pensamentos acerca da internacionalização das artes cênicas brasileiras.
Acreditamos que o tempo é grande aliado dos nossos trabalhos e dos artistas que a compõem. Não estamos preocupados com estreias, mas com as urgências que afligem artistas e sociedade, no contexto ao qual estamos inseridos, pois nosso trabalho antes de mais nada é político e a arte que nos interessa não é inofensiva!
A artista coloca seu corpo travesti como sujeito e objeto de pesquisa, debatendo/denunciando a ausência desses corpos nos espaços de arte.

RENATA CARVALHO
Graduating in Social Sciences. Founder of Monart (National Movement of Trans Artists), of the "Trans Representativity Manifesto" (which aims at the inclusion of travesti/trans bodies in the spaces of art creation and calls for a break from the practice of Trans Fake - cisgender artists who play trans/travesti characters).
As a transpologist (a trans anthropologist), she has studied the travesti/trans body since 2007, when she became a volunteer prevention agent for STIs, HIV/AIDS, tuberculosis and hepatitis by the municipal health secretary of Santos, working specifically with travesti and transsexuals in prostitution, the same year of her travesti perception.
This transpology points to the social, media, criminal, hyper sexualizing, pathological, religious and moral construction that permeates trans/travesti bodies, where art, and consequently, artists were/are also responsible for the construction of this common sense imagery.
The artist places her travesti body as subject and object of research, debating/denouncing the absence of these bodies in art spaces.
CORPO A FORA is an internationalization action, an exercise of imagining and creating policies of approaching Brazilian performing arts beyond our borders.
It emerges as a consequence of the work between the production company CORPO RASTREADO and artists of the performing arts, who carry out in partnership a continuous action for the development of their artistic trajectories.
We are a network of producers/artists who plan, implement and believe in the cooperation between different bodies as the first matter for creation.
Within this perspective, of creating actions that can foster our work, we developed in 2020 the internationalization action called FarOFFa, and through it we performed different forms of meeting between artists, audience, producers and programmers, including during the social isolation in the context of Covid-19, having as main action the approximation of ideas and thoughts about the internationalization of Brazilian performing arts.
We believe that time is a great ally of our works and of the artists that compose it. We are not concerned with premieres, but with what urges and afflict artists and society, in the context to which we are inserted, because our work is above all political and the art that interests us is not harmless!
Artist and researcher, Marina Guzzo focuses her creations on the interface of the body and the landscape, mixing dance, performance and circus by tensioning the limits of subjectivity in cities and nature. Since 2011, his research has focused on the climate crisis and the role of the artist in producing imagery for crossing a world in ruins in the Anthropocene. It works in partnerships with health, cultural and social assistance facilities, thinking of art as a political action that weaves a complex interspecific network of people, institutions, objects, plants, animals, fungi and landscape. Post-doctorate from the Department of Performing Arts at ECA-USP and master and doctorate in Social Psychology from PUC-SP. She is an Associate Professor at Unifesp at the Baixada Santista Campus, a researcher at the Corpo e Arte Laboratory at the Instituto Saúde e Sociedade.

Elisabete Finger
Brazilian choreographer and performer. Her creations investigate the materiality and anatomy of bodies and things, exposing textures, densities, forms, and fluids in situations that explore the borders between delight and disturbance. Through the contact-collision of different materials, she experiments logics guided by sensations and eroticisms, which often rub against meanings and social or cultural expectations. Her recent work proposes unexpected encounters between very different partners, as a way to practice political ecologies, rehearsing other forms of empathy.
She studied Law / Public Politics in Brazil, Dance and Choreography in different places such as the Essais program at CNDC d’Angers (France) and the MA SODA (UdK/HZT, Berlin). She is based in Berlin since 2021, maintaining ongoing collaborations in Brazil and other countries. Finger was a fellow of the Martin Roth Initiative 2021/2022, and in 2023 is a resident artist at Radialsystem, in the frame of Weltoffenes Berlin fellowship.
