Fabled Realities (Art in the Origin 2019)

To feel, to play, to touch, to hug. There, in that feeling, something surges: a memory.... a mark.

It presents itself. Is it part of nature? Is it part of me?

The sea leaves its trace on the sand, the wind marks the rocks, the river plays with its limits, one against the other they try to impose themselves, they leave marks...and my body on the rocks, on the snow, on the soil, does it leave its trace? Or do they leave it on me?

I am at one with myself in nature, I get confused in it, I imitate it, I reflect it. I look for rhythms in the elements that surround me. I empathize with them.

I act on them, I leave traces, I experiment.... I let my mind go.

My senses expand.

A strange energy takes me over.

I vibrate with it.
