you’ll make statue on word, but on my sign you’ll add movement (which is coming from the position) and then again on the sign you’ll produce a sound - word, short sentence. Repeat it, repeat it. On my sign, you’ll find someone who is doing a very similar thing to you. When you find your pair, stop but stay together (it must be mutual choice)
Word:
Politics (statue). Add movement. Add sound – Find similar one (stay in pairs). Showing each pair (one by one) on big group.
Marriage (statue). Add movement. Add sound. – Find complementary one. Showing on the big group.
Oppression. Find complementary one. Showing on the big group.
Variation - instead of finding similar pair, find someone who is doing the opposite to you (yin & yang).
