“Origen 01”,
8’, 2001
In
primitive times, life and its mysteries were revealed
to the young ones by magical means. The shaman, the
sorcerer, the healer, the storyteller, the magician would
meticulously
plan a farce, a play based on symbols that reproduced
the
origins of the soul. He would not teach the pupil,
he would make him experience fear, love, thirst, hunger,
pain, violence
and death in order for him to understand life, or to
find a way to live it and love it. I long for such
an
experience.
