This research examines how combining painting and choreography can reshape artistic identities and challenge traditional dance forms.  From ballet's strict structure to modern dance's liberated expression, this study explores the possibilities, obstacles, and progression of transitioning from established techniques to more unbridled forms of artistic expression.  Incorporating diverse artistic mediums, the work aims to illuminate the transformative power of cross-disciplinary practice in broadening traditional dance aesthetics.

The study introduces a new method called Synergetic Agential Choreography, which incorporates fluid acrylic flow paintings created by dancers to inspire movement.  Through a seven-step process, dancers translate their visual art into dance, freeing themselves from established techniques.  By emphasizing the dancer's connection to their artwork, this method enhances and enlightens the execution of their movements.  Synergetic Agential Choreography is grounded in the theory of Agential Realism, developed by physicist Karan Barad, which acknowledges the interconnectedness of human and nonhuman elements.  The study explores the dynamic interplay between dancers, paintings, and choreography.  Drawing on Karen Barad's conceptualization of the world as an ever-evolving network of entities, this theoretical framework recognizes the continual transformation of material forms.

The study concludes this approach enhances choreography and fosters personal development and a deeper understanding of the artistic identities of dancers.  It examined eight projects designed to explore creative expression, underscoring the power of cross-disciplinary art.  The research emphasizes the benefits of collaboration across the artistic disciplines of painting and dance, illustrating the capacity to harmonize freedom with structure, technique with creativity, and tradition with innovation.  In essence, the materialization of a choreographic process through a cross-discipline approach can be the catalyst for artistic growth.
