  Spelling out a practice. New in being continuous, monadic, and inclusive.
The soil, not the avant-garde. Constant, not latest. Dwelling under skin.

  Any image — alteration, manipulation, action, invention, naming — that is generative (that grounds more) originates with-in a conception of the World inside, according, in the aegis of that specific image.
Making is the making real of this conception, freely, auto-nomously, poietically. 

Value your freedom, your autonomy, our poietics: right there, this practice entails presence, shared.

  A work is flesh of an organism living beyond the piece itself. +

 

 

  4

  A piece is mere documentation of its organism, something otherly and diverse. +
