Reflections


Impermanence

In the essay, The Architect, found in Volume One of the Books of Wonder, Tommy Wonder states:

…magic is not a material thing, it can only exist in performance.

Magic exists only in relationship between self and other – even if that other is oneself. It exists only in the space that is co-created between the performance magician and their audience. It doesn’t exist in a drawer, box or bookshelf.
