VERTIGINOUS is intended to operate simultaneously as art practice, teaching pedagogy, and research hub. After growing dissatisfied with the distance between a textual exploration of a Bataillean "impossible" and the corporeality of the body, M Kitchell began to explore various physical practices with the idea of bringing himself as close as possible to a state of levitation. Finding a further necessary impetus in his encounter with Jerzy Grotowski, and especially in Grotowski's idea of "[t]raining to immediately access one's own psychic impulses," Kitchell takes a research- & practice-based approach to closing the gap between physical existence and conceptual/narrative explorations of the "outside".
