spirit

.


When you see a fish you don't think of its scales, do you? 
You think of its speed, its floating, flashing body seen through the water...
If I made fins and eyes and scales, I would arrest its movement, give a pattern or shape of reality. 
I want just the flash of its spirit.

  2. A weightless Louise Fuller in the age of the modern camera, an absolute dream.
