Poetry can lead us to the flow of wind. The words, or mental images can take us away, into trance. The relation with the unknown takes shape in that stopped time, and it’s up to us to give body to the experience. Everything is an abstraction. Let’s overlay this with words, feelings and movement.
Traducido del inglés
La poesía nos puede llevar al flujo del viento. Las palabras o imágenes mentales nos pueden llevar lejos, a un trance. La relación con lo desconocido toma forma en este tiempo detenido, y nos toca a nosotros darle cuerpo a esa experiencia. Todo es una abstracción. Vamos a poner palabras, sentimientos y movimiento sobre ésta.
