October 7. DAY 1.

To begin, i lie on the gallery floor, breathing as fully as i can, remembering how an embryo practices breathing in utero, before it is born.

People begin to enter the space and i am drawn into performing some of the studies for them.

Conversations follow from the performances:
about the relative hardness of objects alongside the softness of the body, about Newtown and the generosity of the people here, about perspective and scale in relation to the wider views beyond the space, playing under tables as children, about the resonsnce of movement beyond the act, about birthdays and age, about travelling home, the absorption of sound… listening to ravens.
