thebodyasconduit: Emerson said that a library is a magic chamber in which there are many enchanted spirits. They wake when we call them.When the book lies unopened, it is literally, geometrically, a volume, a thing among things. When we open it, when the book surrenders itself to its reader, the aesthetic event occurs. And even for the same reader the same book changes, for the change; we are the river of Heraclitus, who said that the man of yesterday is not the man of today, who will not be the man of tomorrow. We change incessantly, and each reading of a book, each rereading, each memory of that rereading, reinvents the text. The text too is the changing river of Heraclitus.- Jorge Luis Borges * And this, too, is how I feel about making photographs, about the body and the memory of the body.This is why I photograph my body and your body and your bodies. And ours. Perhaps the body is not just a thing, yes, perhaps.But it is a shape, always a geometry.The surrender of the book is the vulnerability of a body.My body and your body and your bodies. And ours. May 2013 film
