The pieces all deal with the idea of the body and its movements, that connects the individual person with History and collective movements and stories about gender, religion and norms in society. Commercials, science, and science fiction movies blend into modern religious tales in a secular society.These narratives are not recorded and made known and public as a manifesto or a boook of beliefs systems in writing. They are part of a realm of notions and vague feelings, that reside in private, and this is what is common and shared by people. The unresolved, unspoken is problably something one can feel rather than articulate with ease.And that which is felt, resides in the body.The body is the border to the other human being, and the body is also the place where the inner world and the outside collapse into one another.
In the community of sports, in 1930's group gymnastic's , or the boxer's knock-out, that sends you into collective amnesia, there is a certain ambiguity, in which an individual person can seek fellowship with other individuals, when in fact you no longer have the desire to be very individual, and just want to be like everyone else.
