"If there is love in your soul then your body will express it naturally in every day movements" - Kazuo Ohno
Maybe it is because of the fool moon but more than this, it was the impact of a new movie by Mara Mattuschka that made me feel like I am in other world, somewhere where again the importance of saying more by acting less is one of the rules." Minimal things that say a lot". Not a rule, this is the wrong word, but just the way something is.
It seems that nothing could be hidden from somebody who is short sighted and is used to looking at things really close up, from this intimate angel, where a body becomes more three dimensional, when a small movement of the body is sometimes the loudest echo of the soul, when questions are asked not to interrogate but to find out and to get to know somebody or something. I am not feeling comfortable enough to write about the lunch talk today just because it hit an emotion very deep that I am not sure I can easily express in words. The more words I use I seem to feel that I know less about what I want to say.
The point of conversation today was love. This division of amateur and professional was linked to this notion and it made the two terms seem completely irrelevant if one choices to concentrate on the larger scale of things. The world we all share, similar like the world of the Mara Mattuschka films, share same space and also the individual circle that all seem to come from. Even if the language spoken is not understood by all, it seems that it is not a crucial issue and that what is said is not that important. Few words one understands are then picked up and one creates his/her own associations. Words then become part of the body language and maybe the aim of the body is not only to "protect "the soul but let it speak out.
I think I will stop my writing here. It has nothing to do with the fact that I have something else that I must run to, but mentioning it I am giving it importance it is again what I mentioned before that by speaking now I may give words out that are not that well organized on this paper to fully express the emotion felt. If at all you are interested to learn more about the artist I spoke about my recommendation really is to go to Salzburg, next Monday and take a look at her movies which will be played at Das Kino from 8 pm.
