Description: As an artist I work with movement, expressed in performance and descriptive writing.0My time-space based work consists of movement-performances and installations with movement and speech. 0My writing originated from translating observations of situations and movements, resulting in texts that are spoken in performances, written out in drawings and written or printed in books. 00The book moving - writing, that began as an attempt to keep my ephemeral art works alive, gradually became a work in its own right on movement and the imaginative power of language, that also - through the idea that my description of a movement could develop into a personal variant of that movement in the reader's mind - could be an open way of passing on my works.00Except by re-performing them, movements can only survive in a person's imagination, through memory or through the medium which is ostensibly the furthest away from the actual experience of space and time, but, thanks to the power of imagination, can perhaps come the closest to it: language, telling, translating.00Toine Horvers.
