MOVEMENT AS A SUBJECT OF INTERDISCIPLINARY STUDY THROUGH DRAWING AND DANCE

Abstract

Movement represents one of the fundamental categories of artistic
thinking and expression and appears as a shared element across different artistic
disciplines. Contemporary artistic and pedagogical approaches increasingly
emphasize the importance of interdisciplinary understanding of movement,
particularly in the relationship between visual and performing arts. Based on
theoretical insights from visual arts, dance studies, and aesthetics, this paper
examines movement as a common category that connects drawing and dance. The
analysis focuses on scientific and theoretical works in which movement is interpreted
as both an artistic and analytical category, as well as those that indicate possibilities
for linking drawing and dance in theoretical and pedagogical contexts. Special
attention is directed toward identifying key dimensions of movement in visual and
embodied media and their comparative analysis. The results indicate that movement
in drawing manifests through line dynamics, composition, and the relationship
between form and space, while in dance it is realized through the body, rhythm, and
the temporal organization of movement. Numerous shared structural and expressive
features have been identified, enabling an interdisciplinary interpretation of these
two media. The significance of this approach is particularly evident in art education,
where the integration of visual and embodied experience contributes to the
development of creativity, spatial thinking, and understanding of the artistic process.
It can be concluded that movement constitutes a relevant theoretical foundation for
the interdisciplinary connection between drawing and dance, with significant
scientific and pedagogical implications for contemporary art education.
