PHYSICAL EXERCISES

solo sketches with accompanying text

I am compiling a collection of physical exercises for the purpose of preparing the body and mind to be a medium for performance.
This collection is presented here as a series of solo video sketches with accompanying text.
These files show work-in-progress in an unrefined state in order to communicate ideas.
It is informative to read the text first before viewing the video.
