Hauāuru.
West wind
Hā — Breath, metal, structure, boundaries, lungs.
Earth promotes metal - Metal controls wood
In Traditional Chinese medicine Metal (lung and large intestine) is yin in character, its motion is inwards and its energy is contracting. It is associated with the west.
In this video the two characters journey together in a neverending cyclical path.
The movement is influenced by Butoh, a practice that among many things can be viewed as a turn away from the Western styles of dance, ballet and modern, to create an aesthetic that embraces an earthbound physique and natural movements.
You are the sky’s migraine
The lone lamp is a piss coloured sun
Light rains on your jerking form; on your splayed and tensing fingers (Imagine ten pillars of salt, shuddering like mistakes)
It is hot under the piss sun
The stone sweats and your bodies crackle
Run backwards, wildly, to catch the gone moment
In the end, you are left in the tunnel’s sacrum
arms raised/wrists twirling/torso jerking in the half-light
