With a text from Pascal Quignard - El origen de la danza
“Forget the rhythm. Try not to be aware of your horns. Give up the ground. Lose your muscles. Stop training. Please don’t follow the music. Don't bind yourselves to anything any more. Think of being born; that is the essential. Weigh yourself suddenly with all your weight on the ground like animals do in the forest. Lean on the humiliated pain of the ground. Then, surrender to the movement that arises. A cow's movement in the field raises its nose and moos. A black fly movement on the glass takes off, buzzes, leaves, crashes again, and suddenly traces an immense loop in the room’s air. A movement of pike opens its mouth in the silent and black water where it passes, where it bites, where it swallows. Become the neck of the bison that turns suddenly backwards on the wall of the well of Lascaux and that expires all its breath in the perpetual night of the origin of the men who are painting their origin on the dark side of the mountain. It becomes the movement that the old Japanese peasant woman tries to make when she gets up on the Tami, groaning because her knees are so crippled. Explore this movement as clumsily as possible, that is to say, with the same difficulty she feels. Only clumsiness is native. In the same way that Klee, right-handed, in his Bern atelier, forced himself to draw with his left hand, painfully put his injured knee on the ground, place in front of you both hands with palms down in the dust and pull, pull with your fingers, drag your backside, advance on all fours towards the light that is before your eyes and that is nothing more than the burning explosion of a star in the continuous night. Beauty is linked to the awkwardness of the origin. The first step taken by the child is a stumbling, faltering step, and it is the most beautiful step there can be in the sublunar world where the children of mortals survive as best they can.”
