Desenho, do tradicional ao digital: reflexos na produção artística de Parintins - AM

Abstract

This study explores the transition from traditional drawing to the use of digital technologies in the field of drawing in Parintins-AM, a city located in the northern region of Brazil. The research emerged from an observation of the local traditional artistic scene and the underutilization of digital drawing in this context. The central aim of the research was to investigate the relationship between traditional and digital drawing in the artistic production of Parintins-AM. Employing a qualitative approach, the study involved artists engaged in both realms of drawing. Data were collected and analyzed through interviews and semi-structured questionnaires, allowing for a more in-depth exploration of the issues at hand. The research was grounded in relevant literature, with the main contributions of authors such as Sílvia Simões (2001), Arlindo Machado (2008), and Débora Gasparetto (2013; 2016). The study highlights how digital drawing is gradually reshaping artistic production in Parintins-AM while preserving elements of the local culture.
