There are words
we use more often
than others
.
.
words
describing
how we feel
.
and
.
where we are
.
Where
Words
How
Here
.
.
We are lost and want to be found
Keywords born out of urgent matters
Urgent words creating portals, so we are able to the pathway
.
.
one brings his own life into an art space
.
Senses
Setting
Settling
.
.
.
Awareness of our presence,
wondering how to fill the space,
finding a place – where we haven’t been before
.

Senses
Setting
Settling

.
.
Tuning the body, an assessment of our humanoid functions
Being seated is like the old days when visiting the theatre
Listen, it could have been happening right here right now

is there sound outside?

Proof of those we can’t control once thrown

Do stones know who they are like us?

Did you see this

As a child no word like control I wonder if the stone is able to think back
.
.

This stone
Yours truly, ours
Sound of glass
.
.

Moving from right into left of frame
leaving frame at the left
.
.
Galaxy, planets, orbing on the floor
Stone disco, running in concrete tracks
.
.

one marble comes back from left rolls to right
bouncing
crashing into wall of wood
dull noise
wooden wall
playful joyful
Some heavy most of them light

lift
shake
fold

laying rocks on tree trunks

move this space move this space
be versatile
metal urging moving bodies
shifting shape when nature calls
iron forcing nursing outrage
elevating numbing tones
stomping ‘round ’til oxidised
tools of men
are made of metal
tools of men

there were times when people
would travel
back to the city
after a nice retreat in the country
and everything they saw
felt fresh and new
art felt like nature
nature felt like art
sculpture like people

thrown into a pond
the pond was calm

thoughts travel
in and out
around
back and forth
up down

transported by any spectator of an
image a shape a shadow a sculpture
lines are followed by eyes
swallowed by thoughts

old thoughts
.

do not fear your inner move

entering a museum room
crammed with sculptures
on top of each other

.

they are made of porcelain

reality is how you see the world

you are invited to walk
.
.

this sculpture has no back
(just) walk around it

only to be seen by those who know

to move is to evolve what was not there before
.
an object will move in its own time (herhaal cursief, freestyle)
.
an object does not desire to be pushed by us
.
an object does not desire
movement is free to move
a natural pace without being commanded
.
.
.

never tired like us
.
.
.

so now you know
.
movement will rise to the occasion when nature calls like the wind
.
an object will move in its own time
