I love the acuity of his placement, proportion, scale and use of the silent space
– reverberating foreground and background.
I feel sound.
The simplicity is a compressed and searing haiku
– a trained dancer when on opening night
and
the curtain rises and the music begins,
after months of practice,
leaping and landing across the stage
with
grace, elegance and weightlessness.
BEAUTIFUL!
