Painting is a familiar trigger element in the construction of texts that use creative writing techniques, especially in the context of writing short stories and novels. This work investigates a mode of dramaturgical creation based on creative writing that I developed based on the paintings and writings of the Spanish artist Remedios Varo (1908-1963). My interest in Remedios' work began in 2022, during research for writing a short story, and since then the artist's production has been significant for me in developing my creation as a writer and playwright, especially because I observed that the Spanish artist created a universe that connects beings and buildings in true visual narratives, something that I also seek to elaborate, but in literary narratives and, in the case of this work, refers to the play Cavalo do Cão. In this sense, we start here from research-creation as a methodology for sharing the creative process, which is the guiding thread of the research, and not from the writing of the play as a “final product”. Research-creation is seen here as an understanding of the process of poetic elaboration, but also as a possibility of sharing. In addition to tracking and organizing this process, supported by genetic criticism, practical experience through writing workshops was also a fundamental mechanism for this research, and included thirty-one participants from different regions of the country and with different relationships with writing and the visual arts. The idea, based on the workshops, was to develop a kind of creative itinerary, with games and creative writing exercises for the stage, which could therefore be developed and replicated by other creators. In this sense, Remedios Varo's work is a starting point for a mode of creation, and stands out for its symbolism and theatrical character, as well as for the possibilities of play that it presents to those who are attentive enough to play with his work.
