SISÄÄNHENGITYKSEN KESKIVAIHEILLA TUNTUU SILKKISELTÄ

States of weightlessness intertwine with the realities defined by everyday life. The boundaries of being fade. Breathing deepens. The surrounding air merges with the body.

Sisäänhengityksen keskivaiheilla tuntuu silkkiseltä draws from both private and shared meditative experiences. The work explores the sensations within the mind and body, at times floating and rising, at other times plunging into the depths of the mind.

The piece creates a world on stage where the body alternates between heavy mass and feather-light material. Within these internal experiences, absurd events blend with determined practice, offering glimpses into the landscapes of a meditating mind.
