“…We are all, in essence, phenomena in a constant state of intra-action, changing as we constantly change the world. Clossick, I feel, understood this intuitively when he wrote to me recently “Go to the beginning where the thing is everything but art./Do it each time from the inside out, reliving the full process of growth.” I could go on to write at length about the complex ways and means of Clossick’s superlative technique but, at heart, it is a tool for the open-ended ‘knowing’ of the world, a ‘performance’ of it that is not only true to his art but, it would seem, true to the underlying nature of the world and, for this reason, if no other, intensely moving.”
