All the people, here, now. Being. Present. Seed for peace. Turkey. Brazil. South America. So many people from South America that I know and admire.

‘everything makes love with silence’
‘tangible absence’
– two expressions from the poem of my beloved author keep coming back and back to my mind. I am such a tangible creature (am I?) The silence that filled the room during both small dances was tangible, so thick and so substantial.
tangible silence
body of movement
people loved the underscore because of the strong feeling of being a part of the group
