Rusá - Dançantes (2016-2017)

Against the grain of street photography conventions, "Dançantes" (2016-2017) created a dispositif (a photographic studio in a garage) that operates primarily by inviting dancers to pose for a portrait. In this approach, where each photographed person has greater control over their own image, layers are revealed that are barely visible in the quick snapshots taken by visitors during the procession. Jeans, sneakers, t-shirts, watches, as well as gazes and postures, appear underneath the sacred garment, overflowing with the particularities of these individuals who are normally seen in a collective context.
