Entering the subody drawing

Students drew their subbody world. Normally I enter each subbody movement as every day work, but last night I entered each subbody drawing.

Asuka

She is the second year of subbody school. Her drawing become so precisely. So many subbodies are drawn. A fetus is drawn at the bottom. Maybe this is her bottom body. Fetus is resonating with outside noises. A black monster is going to  touch the womb. The fetus is shivering with it and strange black something hair-like are generating. The fetus is dreaming a dream of big hand. Many snow mountains is transforming to shaper ice edges and going to attack at the left side. So many other fetuses are floating at the lower right edge. A plant is growing upper side and flowering. Many leaves are fading down and returning the earth. Many worms are growing up at the upper edge. A building are collapsing at the left bottom. Her subbody drawing become much more precise than before. It is the proof she walk a lot in the darkness of body. When it becomes transparent like this, the rest of theme is to create each subbody by bodily movement and finding proper Jo-ha-kyu.

Francesco

He drew a black center and many legs like octopus. He has created some piece of subbody already in each week, the piece of under the table, under the pine tree and so on. They are some of legs. When he will continue these creation of subbodies, after several months, a long solo which dance the whole self will be completed.

Xavi

Many colored water drops or eggs are floating in the darkness, and many child subbodies are living in each drop. This is the nest of subbodies. When he dance this world, it becomes nest walk. He will grow up each egg of subbody. Also today he found a novel one.

Pete

He is the third year of subbody school, then he could drew over twenty subbodies. Each subbody is visualized clearly. His visual channel is open fully, because he is a designer. He has already found a bottom subbody at the cave of rock garden. If he could dance all of these subbodies, the piece will be around two hours long.

Chiara

She drew a swaying realm between non-dual and dualistic realm. A red element and a blue element are going to separate from the non-dual darkness of body. A subtle white face is swaying between both world. She can dance these sway as a weakened body. It will become unique piece. Also Hijikata danced these swaying in his last butoh peice, though almost people could not understand.

Gorka

A huge great mother or his anima is drawn. Great mother loves everything, and eat everything. Maybe his subbodies ares played with great mother or anima in the darkness of body. It appear in another drawing of him. A big hand of great mother toys with his tiny subbodies. I can understand his hardness, because me too. It will take time to dance own anima. I could not dance anima though long year I tried. Also Kazuo ohno could success to dance his mother’s piece at seventy five years old at last.

Tamar

So strong emotions are storming in her drawing. Until now her subbody pieces were also full of strong emotional storms. Next theme for her is to take off these human conditions, then we could dance as a life. That is the universal theme for all of us too. How to control emotional storm is so difficult also for me, then I planned it will be the theme of the second term of school. But I have to prepare it earlier than I thought.

Catalina

A huge tornado of world-self image is swirling in her drawing. And some strange monsters or creatures are going to appear with dark red color. So strange creatures are living in our darkness of body. We need to recognize them, and become friends, this is what to do for us. After that, it is able to resonate with all kinds of misery in the world. She has the destiny and bravery to accept it.
