Luciana Freire D’Anunciação’
NUNCA HÁ NADA / THERE IS NEVER NOTHING
NUNCA HÁ NADA / THERE IS NEVER NOTHING
Nunca há Nada | There Is Never Nothing is a collection of poems that look into the performativity of the poetic language as potential to expand Luciana Freire D’Anunciação’s performance art and dance practice. They are based on the improvisation technique of paying attention to the smallest events from the continuous stimuli exchange between the internal and external worlds in the present moment. Poetry here becomes a medium for creatively documenting performances she did or witnessed — and after the fact chose to frame it as such. Most of the texts were written during the second year of the pandemic. Some of them she wrote first in English, some in Portuguese, some in Canada and some in Brazil. Later she translated them embracing the oddness of translation gaps and the impossible literal translations. This also reflects her condition as a Brazilian immigrant living in Canada, who reconciles two languages, two cultures, and two art disciplines (poetry and performance) as well as pursues never-ending questions around identity and sense of belonging.
