On 'Corps Aboli' (1978) by Teo Hernández

A dance of two incommensurable bodies — one onto which, invariably, the gaze inscribes its perception and another which possesses, directs the gaze. What becomes possible in this dance however, is a meeting of the two without one to the other becoming same; the dancer and the camera remain forever distanced yet find themselves entangled in an unconsummated carress, in the same manner that the wind grazes my hand's grasp. As such every regime of the body is laid waste to; all signification is worthless for the body, at once, becomes nothing more and so much more than it already is. The dancer's body then, is no longer a thing to be gazed upon: "his body no longer perceptible, his soul a fire on display." [1] Instead, the gaze joins in onto its dance as the two together become nothing but pure motion — dance as a manner of being in the world. It is a marvelous little film, an a-signifying machine which shows that other gazes and perceptions always remain possible still.
