Today is Lung Day. Let’s start with a deep breath, the rib cage rises, air flows in due to pressure difference and fills the available space, all the cavities, chimneys and pipes.The chest tightens… until it softly relaxes and blows out.
It may seem so that the things are just that simple, everything works just that easy, like breathing, of course, no doubt. Making art is easy. Work becomes fun and fruitful, without hassle and any wasted energy. Take it easy, be water, my friend.
However, if anything gets in the way of the flow, it is unpleasant and irritating, breaking the routine, the even undulation of inhaling and exhaling, creeping onto the radar of the autopilot.
Something’s not right.
Since layers of different quality and density are built on top of each other – depending on what we want to see – we bombard the chest with soft or hard rays until CT-bareness.
