In my kinaesthetic dance practice, and the kinaesthetic charcoal drawing, both are based on the sensation and perception as the stimulus, the body as the channel, allow the body to be moved and to be danced by the energy. This moving and dancing is very intuitive and impulsive, or we can say it’s from the heart and soul, not form the intellectual mind.
After this channel has been opened up and developed, the flow reveals. In this flow state of being, the body movement is a manifestation of the energy, and it can be transformed into another artistic form - charcoal drawing. Charcoal is an original material that the body can directly touch it without any other decoration in between, sometimes the body would have the urge to completely embrace the charcoal as well.
Listen to how the body moves, and the charcoal is the extension of the body, moves on the paper. Without any interference from the ego and the mind, the movement of the body, in space, on the paper, are the freedom of expression.
