I imagine - Imagine-a form of experience - a form of encounter - that for the first 14 days Walking Man couldn’t look up- unable to lift his face from the Earth, couldn’t rise from his knees, gradually he raised up from flat on his belly as he’d been-like a snake, then he knelt.  Gradually- it might have taken months- 40 days? -he sat up cross legged in front of this consuming presence- that somehow consumed backwards and forwards at once. moving towards intimacy with Everything.
