Experiencing Space


At every point in time,
Our body is surrounded by space,
Body in space or space in body,
Whatever?
The question is............................
Does our body experience this space?
Maybe, it's a dilemma of our time, maybe not,
People often walk in long corridors,
Travels from one place to the other,
Relax in their homes,
But, do we understand these spaces?
Do we understand our body?
Does our body experience the spaces?
...............................................................

In this workshop by Susanna Recchia, i realised that my body consist of not just the flesh but a series of layers which interacts with the space. An understanding and awareness of these series of layers helped me to understand our space, our architecture, and our world. In short, body awareness influences the perception of our spaces.
