He understands that he is always on the verge of collapse, and it is this perpetual state of doubt and ungrounding that focuses the mind. I would like to call this clarity of mind, when the knees buckle, an ethics of uncertainty. The gaze of a practitioner always trained below the sublime sky and towards a ground.\u00a0<br><br>A famous sequence transpires in the movie that the Kaczy\u0144ski brothers starred in as children. The two young blondes creep up to the setting moon and capture it as it dips below the dark horizon. A fairytale that now seems an omen portending the political darkness that has spread around the world. As isolationist nationalism condemns immigrants to wait\u2013for refuge, for work, for a visa, for respite\u2013feet in one land, eyes trained towards another. Beyond the horizon is possibility and anticipation. Beyond the horizon is memory and longing. But below the horizon is the here and now, where we place our feet in the moment of eclipse, when the lights go out, and the vanishing point dips below the dark horizon, not there but here.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><\/p>\n<\/div><\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Sreshta Rit PremnathBelow Blue Horizon10.01 &#8211; 15.02.2019curated by Tiago de Abreu Pinto When Koji Kamoji says, \u201cI can concentrate better when I&#8217;m on my knees,\u201d in response to a query <a class=\"moretag\" href=\"https:\/\/rodriguezgallery.com\/pl\/below-blue-horizon\/\">Read More &#8230;<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":0,"parent":0,"menu_order":0,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","template":"full-width-page.php","meta":{"footnotes":""},"class_list":["post-3940","page","type-page","status-publish","hentry"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/rodriguezgallery.com\/pl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/pages\/3940","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/rodriguezgallery.com\/pl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/pages"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/rodriguezgallery.com\/pl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/page"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/rodriguezgallery.com\/pl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/rodriguezgallery.com\/pl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=3940"}],"version-history":[{"count":2,"href":"https:\/\/rodriguezgallery.com\/pl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/pages\/3940\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":4043,"href":"https:\/\/rodriguezgallery.com\/pl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/pages\/3940\/revisions\/4043"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/rodriguezgallery.com\/pl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=3940"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
