The Narrow Gate III
‘As soon as we try to make the body motionless in space, it becomes detached from us; we discover the importance of motion to the body. There is a considerable distance between the body and the ‘self’. We try to probe this distance. When we succeed in doing so, we meet our lost body and everything merges into one. Costumes, materials, sound and the space are extensions of our body.’ (Ishii & Bettina, invitation De Appel, March 1978.)
