Abstract

The following text takes as a starting point the experience with the theater of shadows, initially mediated by the example of the artist Lourdes Castro, who enriched her poetics by investing in the visual arts and the theater of shadows, and undertook promising contaminations between languages. From the description of a scene created in the theater of shadows, the conduction of the gaze turned to think of the definition of artist as the bearer of the shadow. Idea by the artist Marcel Duchamp in another context decades ago, as well as the infra-mince, which in this text, helps to understand the doing on the scene.
