기표로서의 무용과 매개에 대한 연구

Abstract

This study developed the theme along two axes of the ‘reality’ and the meaning of dance. The image represented by dance were regarded as 'signifier' of human emotions as the signified. The intermediation that enable dance as 'signifier' to be present as image were assumed to be time and spaces to conduct the study. The results of studies on dance image, time as a mediator and memories as suggested in this study are as follows. ▪Dance as signifier is image as 'reality' that will appear in memories as communities' mutual subjective views, i.e., culture. ▪If image is signifier to be decoding by community members, human emotions means a state where humans are free from minds or emotions having the function to compare and judge instead of removing them, i.e., 'Zhuang Zi's Xiao Yao You'. ▪Dance is the image that is free from values and the world of meanings thereby denying fixed values and surpassing the world of meanings. ▪Dance is transferred with images. In this process, the 'expressions of body' which are mediators determine the intensity of transfers. ▪Dance image can be representations in that all realities whatsoever behind them are denied, thus the temporality possessed by dances is a way to be represented as image. ▪Dance can be 'reality(virtual entity)' instead of 'appearance' or 'apparition' and can be explained as ‘image' because time serves the role of a mediator.
