Horvers, Toine

“Every now and then, I briefly describe the bodily positions Jo and myself are laying in as we awaken. Still half asleep, usually with my eyes closed, I try to work out our positions in relation to one another and in relation to gravity.”

A collection of 46 descriptions of the positions the artist and his partner find themselves in as they lie in their bed upon awakening, the positions are described in a precise and methodical almost scientific way by inventorising a series of neutral impressions, this objective, almost detached approach stands in meaningful contrast with the intimate and familiar positions described; after all, when waking up, especially with a partner, we are at our most vulnerable and open.
