A Solo for Three Visions
The “Solo for Three Visions” project explores and expresses the concept of the ‘poetic body’ hidden in each one of us. Our inner world in a dialogue with our movements in the domain of the external world forms a whole which can be perceived in the form of motion, or, on a higher level, as a form of metaphysics. Through its internal dialogues the body never leaves the prison of the world of logics, but simultaneously, it does not lose its own sense – quite on the contrary. Words of two authors, which served as the inspiration for this piece, come as a good illustration:
“It is often less important to revolutionary change things; it is much more important to make us aware of them.”
Peter Handke, Kaspar and Other Plays
“In the ultimate depths of every human, in his core – there is no peace, but motion – an ontological dynamism. This motion is an utterly internal process. It is not conditioned by the external historical development. This motion is developed within eternity as such. The revelation of life’s irrationality does not diminish the mind; quite on the contrary, the revelation of the irrationality facilitates the mind’s sharpness.”
Nikolai Berdyaev, Tragedy and Everydayness
