Manuela Infante
Manuela Infante is a Chilean playwright, actress, musician, and director. She founded the company "Teatro de Chile". Also, she was recognized with many awards, like the Altazor award for the play "Narciso" in the year 2006. She studied Theater at the University of Chile and Cultural Analysis Magister at the University of Amsterdam.
Some of she´s works are: "Pratt", play she released when she has twenty-two years old, these piece caused polemic in the circle of armed forces. Other of she works is "Black Parrots", Xuarez "," Idomeneo ". Also, wrote children´s plays like" The Heart of the Selfish Giant "and" Helping him to feel ".
My favorite piece of work from Manuela Infante is "Vegetal State". This piece proposes a staging of vegetal theater, another look of reality, and another esthetic in the art.
I admire this woman because I think she´s work is reflexive. She creates deep histories, pondering things like work methodology, reality, and historical representation. I think for women always is more difficult to open space in the art world and have a reference like Manuella Infante inspiring from my theater training.
It's good that you can have such a good reference in your field and it's better if it's someone who makes changes and helps inspire you in your own career, that way you can grow in a better way in your speciality.
ResponderEliminarHi Constanza! How are you? Wow! I didn't know Manuela Infante. I found her work very interesting, especially "Vegetal State"; she is a transdisciplinary woman. I'll search for information about her work later.
