“Each movement transforms our body image in a specific way. The movements we perform regarding feeling and form trace the path of such transformations, drawing new images of the world by renewing the body image that leads us to other movements, and so on.“

Steve Paxton, A Glance Upon Material for the Spine, 2018

“Unlike linear time, time conceived as cyclical cannot be readily abstracted from the spatial phenomena that exemplify it —from instance, the circular trajectories of the sun, the moon, and the stars. unlike a straight line, moreover, a circle demarcates and encloses a spatial field. Indeed, the visible space in which we commonly find ourselves when we step outdoors is itself encompassed by the circular enigma that we have to call “the horizon”. The precise contour of the horizon varies considerably in different terrains, yet whenever we climb to a prominent vantage point, the circular character of the visible world becomes explicit.”

David Abraham, The Spell Of The Sensuous, 1997.
