Sensory Corporeality
Intrinsic to how we gain consciousness of our world.
Abject(ion) Explorations, something instinctive, innately human, visceral, an organ exploring a strange situation.
Joseph Beuys.
Clay as process : Moving~Eruptive~Living~Experiential
Beuys understood that creativity is central to human existence. Making-works-with-matter that makes the mind~body~move through change and transformation as well as emotional rootedness in a primal self.
Tactile experience adheres to the surface of our body, we cannot unfold it before us, and it never quiet becomes an object, correspondingly as the subject of touch. I cannot flatter myself that I am everywhere and nowhere. I cannot forget in this case that it is through my body that I go in the world and tactile experience occurs 'ahead of me' and is not centred in me.
Maurice Merleau Ponty.
Phenomenology of Perception. 1945
