description With the Covid-19 pandemic, the performing arts had to completely change their proposals and the same happened with activism. Between artistic activism and performance art, the Relato situado project (started in 2015) of the Compañía de Funciones Patrióticas is a worthy case to think of current issues. In 2020, in addition to a virtual edition of Barrios por la memoria, they created Memoria del aislamiento, which featured monthly editions. The performance is offered as a testimony of isolation and exposes consciousness of its archive qualities. The experience of the everyday life and the return to the natural in the daily life of the city are elements to think of in these performances. In this article I will focus on the final performance piece, since the montage makes possible to take a trip through the confinement, and it also allows a specific approach based on the connection between creation, city and nature. The performance pieces of the last edition offer a journey through the whole year 2020 and the experience of the four seasons organizes the audiovisual performance, which we could then define as a natural-urban calendar. The common thread is expressed through a return to nature in the experience of everyday life in the city. That is to say, the performances expose the creative power of the everyday life and the relationship with nature stands out as a looking for sun, the need of photosynthesis, the return to the animal and the presence of elements such as fire, sky, water, air. In consequence, the performance appears as an affective and natural calendar. That is why we will use the elements of theories of affect to analyze the relationships between art, experience and nature.

A raíz de la pandemia por COVID-19, las artes escénicas debieron modificar sus propuestas por completo y lo mismo ocurrió con los activismos. Entre activismo artístico y práctica escénica, el proyecto Relato situado (iniciado en 2015) de la Compañía de Funciones Patrióticas constituye un caso notable para pensar encrucijadas actuales. En 2020, además de una edición virtual de Barrios por la memoria, crearon Memoria del aislamiento que contó con ediciones mensuales. El trabajo se presenta como testimonio del aislamiento y expone una consciencia de su establecimiento como archivo. La experiencia de lo cotidiano y el regreso a lo natural en la ciudad constituyen elementos a partir de los cuales es posible atravesar todas estas piezas performáticas. En este artículo me concentraré en la última edición, puesto que el montaje posibilita un recorrido transversal por el confinamiento y un acercamiento específico a partir de la conexión entre creación, ciudad y naturaleza. Las performances de la última edición ofrecen un recorrido por todo el 2020, y la experiencia de las cuatro estaciones organiza el audiovisual que podríamos definir, entonces, como un calendario natural-urbano. El hilo conductor se expresa a partir de un retorno a la naturaleza en la vivencia de lo cotidiano en la ciudad. Es decir, los trabajos exponen la potencia creativa de lo cotidiano, y en ese gesto sobresale la relación con lo natural, que toma la forma de búsqueda de sol, de necesidad de fotosíntesis, de regreso a lo animal, de presencia de elementos como fuego, cielo, agua, aire. Es posible pensar, entonces, que la propuesta se plantea como un calendario afectivo y natural. Es por eso que nos serviremos de elementos de las teorías de los afectos como andamiaje teórico para analizar las conexiones entre arte, experiencia y naturaleza. Facultad de Filosofía y Humanidades.
