November 2020 Chronicle by Anna Piroska Tóth, Miguel Ferraez, Maud Gyssels and Niccolo Masini.
Walking our bodies
Shifting the whole time
As if you couldn’t walk straight
But you always had to look
Behind you
On the side
How everyone is moving
How we move together
As a group
The hierarchy of power
Inside the group
It seems like there’s no
Suddenly someone take the lead
Decide where to go
Trusting the others
More than my eyes
In your hands
How bold we were as a group but also very
Careful for each other
When we were on unknown territory
We were much closer
And in the moment
We got orientation again
We spread out again
An entity
Together
Then we were in pitch black standing
Still
Together
The stopping was more organic than
The starting
The stopping sort of made sense
The starting was more a personal urge from
Someone
A lot of leading
Almost like never get to stand
Still
A moment on the street
Some people started to walk
Others started to walk in the other direction
Expecting the other group to
Stop
But they kept on walking until…
Democracy of majority
Later in the forest it was the opposite
Lot of people went and then some stopped and then everyone came back
When it was really dark
We couldn’t rely on sight
We were more curious
As soon as there was lot of light
We got to a sort of
Stillness
As if the light was stopping
Us
We went to get away
From the light
And when I saw
Light again
I didn’t want to go back in
There was this moment
Undecided
Should we go back
Should we go further
When you two came
We waited
Someone decided
The light was a
Mazing on the trees
The highway
You would see nothing
Hear nothing
If you go that direction
But we did not dare to explore
The abysse of absolute darkness
And not hearing anything
I also don’t want
To go there
This scary thing
Are we really
Wanna go
Many moments about desire
Group desire
It goes
Then comes back
We have to be
Together
Weird things around here
When someone discovered something
Someone is drawn there
Suddenly everyone else is
Following
Then you hear the materials
Everywhere
Everyone
Is scanning the space
Lots of noise
What is this
We were stuck here
We came back
It’s true
This light travelling on the trees
We stopped but the movement of light came
Shadow play
Bringing movement
When we stop to move
Still moment
Different kinds of sounds
Sssssssssss
Different textures of the ground
Sssssssssss
Enjoyed
Not to talk
Concentrate on your body
How you breath
This is not happening
I am not concentrating on myself
At all
Vanished
The group
The form was defined by the path
Showing through the body
That there is something
You have to be careful of
Learning more and more
How to move in the darkness
My arms in front of my eyes
Stopped to look ahead
Just following
Not think about where are you going
Just cross
Whatever would be there
Liberating
Surprised
It was almost an hour
I realised the time was passing
Because I was feeling
Warmer
Where does your attention move
What does it follow
Breathing
Heating up the body
Brings back to your body
Signs
Brings you back
A branch
The feet feeling the way around
The path
Things that I thought were
Rocks were leaves
Leaves were rocks
Our head was
Our feet
Upper body more
Relaxed
Than usual
Was not the one
Giving
The direction
Knees and feet
Giving
Soaking
Depth
You don’t know where it
Ends
Fresh snow
The sensation of my legs
Guiding me
Good
For the body
What there is
What ever there is
I will not die
Fine
The opposite
Already don’t trust
My foot
At all
What is in front
Is the past
The future is behind
What you can see
Cannot see
Relation to
Time through the body
How we go into the
Future
Feel
All this body
Where we go
Where we move
Direction
It’s changing
Each time it’s changing
Extensions
Of my body
High platform shoes
Protecting
Defense
Glasses
Shield of protection
Optical illusions
Just passed through
We are also one body
Also
This other body
It’s not either or
Also
Not a
Coherent
Some wanted to go
Some to stay
Anti-body within the body
Like a failing organ
Trust
Let them go
We seize each other
Stretch
Belonging
In the moment we feel safer
Let the rest of the body go
Explore
