How does your body react to art?

Description

Emotions triggered by experiencing art can be felt in the body.
The body moves as a character: it stretches, morphs and turns in ways that belong to dreams, in front of a wide, nuanced and complex array of emotions, often unexpected and difficult to process.

A straight ahead animation, hand drawn and hand painted on paper (circa 1200 drawings in charcoal and oil pastels) that represents – with exquisite corpse-like transitions and deliberate imperfections – the emotional, textural inscape of a body in its journey through art while visiting the museum.

Produced by MoMA, DaeQuan Alexander Collier, Arlette Hernandez
Recited by: Doctor Emily Price, LP
