One’s
Soundless Good Will is the Main
Foundation
for the Invisible Construction
António
Ramos Rosa
This
is not the time to say anything.
Everything must
remain hidden in its bare, unapproachable potentiality (and unanimity). This
absolute respect is the condition for a possible future germination, and the
sole mediation for an enigma that is entwined with the constructor’s own
breathing.
The constructor is
inside a diaphanous wall between two voids.
What may lead him
to break that glass wall is his concentration at a point where denial of the
exterior may turn into communication with the world.
It is in this
interaction with his own creation that the constructor finds the primal
palpitation of the bodies and of his own body. The most secret texture is
silence, which is the main foundation for the invisible construction.
Everything will be
built in silence, by the force of silence; but the strongest pillar in the
construction will be a word. A word as alive and dense as silence; a word that,
born out of silence, to silence will lead.
