Human Bodies/Spatial Bodies : Theoretical Spaces between Objects.

Childhood a density of life not yet sensing the weight of living.

Expanding the space of the forgetting which is infinitely more creative/active than the space of what you remember.

Events manifested through drawing, navigate spaces and their relations between/amongst/entangled by human bodies and spatial bodies.

That they happen, that they occur, but they do not exist. They are virtual and always in process.

We cannot say that they exist but rather that they 'subsist' or 'inhere' ( having this minimum of being which is appropriate to that which is not a thing, a non-existing entity). They are not substantives or adjectives, but verbs. They are neither agents or patients, but results of actions and passions. They are impassive entities, impassive results. They are not living presents, but infinitives, the unlimited Aion, the becoming which divides itself infinitely in past and future, and always eludes the present.

Reveries on Reverie/Reveries toward Childhood

Childhood sees the World illus­trated,  the World  with  its original colors,  its true colors.  The great once-upon-a-time (autrefois) which we relive by dreaming in our memories of childhood is precisely the world of the first time.

For those of us who can only work on written documents, on documents which are produced by a will to 'edit,' a certain indecision cannot be obliterated in the conclusions which terminate our inquiries. In point of fact, who writes? The animus or the anima?

These seasons find  the means to  be singular while remaining universal.  They  circle in  the sky  of Childhood  and  mark  each childhood  with  indelible signs.  Thus our great memories lodge within the zodiac of memory, of a cosmic memory which does not need the precisions of the social memory in order to be psycholog­ically  faithful.  It is the very  memory  of our belonging  to  the world,  to  a world  commanded  by  the dominating  sun.

The Poetics of Reverie, Childhood, Language, and the Cosmos. Gaston Bachelard. 1960


A particular cosmos forms around a particular image as soon as a poet gives the image a destiny of grandeur. The poet gives the real object its imaginary double, its idealized double. This idealized double is immediately idealizing, and it is thus that a universe is born from an expanding image.

O silence round like the earth
movements of the mute star
gravitation of fruit around the clay nucleus
May no one wound the Fruit
it is the past of joy which is becoming round.

Jean Cayrol
Reverie and Cosmos.175

The sun has gone mad and stripped the earth of its ionosphere. For decades blasting radiation has poured upon earth, melting the polar caps and turning permafrost into streams, rivers, oceans. Huge deltas have been built, lakes formed, seas have risen.
