ASSENTIMENT 3
Creation 2008
In Chinese medicine, there are points along the spine known as assent points, which have the ability to calm and disperse energy. Each of these points corresponds to an internal organ. Together, these points are known as the assent chain.
Beautiful application for a spinal axis, and so many questions for me about the depth of the link, the persistence of the attachment and the consolidation of the cogs.
Extraordinary presence of the elderly in their details of body and mind. “Sedimentarity” through the accumulation of pieces of life, Assentiment 3 is an invitation to understand the density of time on the human being.
