The Board-Corpus Project
Corpus
The body.
Without it we do not exist.
Devoid of emotions. Absent of sensations. Evaporation of self.
Set against a recurring backdrop, bodies appear and disappear,
half hidden or fully exposed, in front of the board,
making it a totem of grounding force,
around which takes place, a dance full of spiritual tensions,
A humble desire, jubilation of visceral energies.
An anatomical resemblance, fluid genders.
An empowering bareness, a mutual love for the self
Totemization of two beings.
Intuitive rituals from the depths of the soul.
A complimentary tandem.
A silent conspiracy,
bodies,
a temple of profound elegance.
Inner forces illuminating the vigour of life,
Stretched in a vertical geography.
A virtuous escape.
Embodiment of the unspoken, a spectrum of emotions,
vibration of the absolute.
We are, this Corpus.
