Intuition
'an attempt at sense
(a word I keep referring to around improvisation).

Intuition, perhaps the first obvious tool inside a creative exploration, but is there a pattern to our intuition? At times it feels so; how then can we really explore this? There is suspicion in intuition... In this short development gut feeling is the only choice to take. Intuition becomes construction. Nice obvious qualities are explored, as movers within this word. Intuition invokes something instinctive, there is speed and desire to understand' - by Eddie Elliott "Mendes interprets myself discovering a new part of my genealogy, channelling the love that has created me. A journey through my whakapapa to present day aspiring to clutch the hands of my foregone ancestors. Mendes touches base on my most recent discovery..." - by Kasina Campbell.
