Sensorial: Venus of WillendorfI was eleven years old when Mrs. Antonia C. Hall showed our class an image of the 25,000 year old figurine nicknamed "Venus of Willendorf." In today's parlance, the lady would be described as *thicc* :) In ancient times, her body type - round, fertile, well fed- held supermodel status. This Venus of W. candle found me- a pleasure in itself. I like to think that it ignited a series of body pleasures: Chi Nei Tsang bodywork from a masterful practitioner, spontaneous dancing with strangers at La Boheme in an outdoor garden, and acupuncture to renew my energy. |
