On the Lake (2010)

"I like" (2013) is a piece dedicated to the amazing Anat Spiegel, who gave its world premiere during InnerSound International New Arts Festival (30.08.2013 @ the Romanian Peasant Museum in Bucharest). e.e.cummings' brilliant poem brought to life the image of a love confession, bashfully written in letter-form, that gradually turns into a vivid erotic trance that borrows from the imagery of Hollywood divas (Ava, Marilyn)and feminine archetypes (from child to femme fatale).

"i like my body when it is with your
body. It is so quite a new thing.
Muscles better and nerves more.
i like your body. i like what it does,
i like its hows. i like to feel the spine
of your body and its bones, and the trembling
-firm-smooth ness and which I will
again and again and again
kiss, i like kissing this and that of you,
i like, slowly stroking the, shocking fuzz
of your electric fur, and what-is-it comes
over parting flesh...And eyes big love-crumbs,

and possibly i like the thrill
of you under me you quite so new "
(e.e.cummings)
