Link profile: Facing the Mask: 10 Essays on Living Art / Le Centre du Silence / USA
Category: Start / Articles on masks

by Samuel Avital Exploring in Essays, Philosophy and Practice of BodySpeaktm training. BodySpeaktm is a transformative art, a method of capturing the essence of a movement or a state of being by a powerful process of identification. ............."Sit with the spine straight, in stillness. Hold the mask in your hands and look at it. Observe the texture and other de tails. It's part of your skin that you have peeled. It's a replica of your physical face. Think no thoughts other than about the mask. Look at the shape of the features. Do not judge, just look. Look at the eyes. They appear as two holes that reach infinity . Become familiar with your face that you hold in your hands. "This tool, the mask, is a place. It's not a time. Become friends with the mask and it will teach you many things. Your face is looking at you. It is covered, somehow, by different thoughts. "Very slowly put the mask on your face. Take five million years to do this. No brusque movements. Every movement should be very conscious. With the mask on, keep the eyes closed. Breathe very calmly. Begin to feel your own facial structure under the mask. It is covered, as if by clothes.
