It’s always the same: the point is that on the one hand we are in danger of burning up, of evaporating, of going too fast, of dissolving, and on the other hand we are in danger of freezing, rigidifying, of becoming mummified and unable to move. Dizziness contains within it both extremes.
A world where all people can enjoy human rights remains an unrealized vision for many. However, we do not need to wait for others to grant us these rights. Instead, we can cultivate personal relationships with our rights and liberties by actively engaging with them through art-based practices.
Drifting away my perception changes. I can only recognise parts of what I do, see, hear and experience. Only in a quiet, secluded environment can I enjoy this state of dizziness, because I can deliver myself into it.
