Corporeal Mime in embers: intimacy, performative atelier and intervention in the creations of Duo Mimexe – This article presents some thoughts about Duo Mimexe performative research in relation to Corporeal Mime, over 2018 in the USA. That experience has integrated the residency in laboratory with Thomas Leabhart, Leonard Pitt, Corinne Soum and Steven Wasson, Étienne Decroux’s former assistants, aiming to understand with studies of re-enactment and the body as an archive the artistic and pedagogical resonances of that art in its current activities, and its intercultural perspectives. The character of the expanded atelier, strengthened by the experience, is discussed concluding that the decrouvian artistic manner can serve as a guide for research based on practice, even generating Art.
