Marina and interior space
Marina Abramovic at the end of her 3 month sit at the MOMA:
I learned so much about my body. I learned that in your body you have so much space and you can actually move inside that. There is space between organs, there is space between bones, there is space between atom and cell, so you can actually start training yourself to breathe a kind of air into that space. And then I understood that the pain is actually not having space, it’s when organs and everything press inside, so by breathing air you can make the pain just disappear.
The technology of introspection (meditation) providing additional sensory awareness to the five traditional, ego senses. It also reminds me of the long sessions of Korean zen.
