Eurythmy Performance

So while language, spoken language, becomes an abstract means of expression through itself—by placing the human being in gravity—what is attempted in this way, where gravity is overcome through the arms and hands in living gestures, becomes a language in which the human being achieves the opposite of what is achieved in spoken language. In spoken language, they bring heaven down to earth and, so to speak, insert heaven into earth. In eurythmy, which reveals itself through gestures by meaningfully overcoming gravity in the human organism of movement, humans wrest their own existence from the earthly and express their soul in such a way that they affirm in every single gesture: I carry a heavenly human being within my earthly human being.
