SKETCH: "the cold"
"The red façade of this 20th century building
reflects in the water of its windows how and
where breath has been transferred . . . . "
"the ground opens -- the music
reveals the order of renewal
-- the deviation --
this violent disassociation
operates the cut:
reflexiveness
of the statement undoing itself --"
retreat's stave
runs through speech
"and its resonances"
the gap amplifies the Discourse
"tensiontakes on
graphic figure"
in the impossiblefrom one body
to the Other
URGE:
born in sleep
she elaborates the day's scene
subterfuge of
objects
the environment blurs
outside limits
leaving only this REPORT;
INCISION:
in the
cold
statements of a Discourse
in recomposition,
"open room in a black or white
rectitude:
a rectangle
answers awakening"
avidity for corporal drawings
in their "alchemical" processes
Toward a sculptural
Breath:
to put Breathing on stage
in
such
space
ORNAMENTS: mirroring gestures
OBJECT: the
tragic
osmosis of a mute precision
the song frees
in the perspectives
the surface undone,
pathway's measure
SCENE:that which can pass from one
mask to another:
light
inversing in the respiratory
square
whose movements demand
a linear reciprocity
or such MISBEHAVIOR as this
