To quote Anne Bogart:
To be awake on the stage, to distort something – a movement, a gesture, a word, a sentence – requires an act of necessary violence: the violence of undefining. Undefining means removing the comfortable assumptions about an object, a person, words, sentences or narrative by putting it all back in question.
Distortion in art is to be awake, to live.
Corners, elbows, behinds. So much more telling and intriguing. Sexier too. Like a lady's ankle.
Gotta stop taking perfectly composed photos.
