The author of the master's thesis defends her approach to the concept of abstract art through the reflection of diary entries and works of art, which she bases on the method of conscious movement of the dance practice 5Rhythms. Referring to the history of avant-garde art, which recognised the subversive character in art, the author also swears by the subversive potential of contemporary abstract art as a form of embodied painting, and calls the painting approach the intuition of the body. In doing so, it derives the psychosomatic belief that the body has a memory and as such allows and gives us the richest experience of life. In connection with the history of action painting and the performative practice of Yves Klein, she thus places herself in the role of a brush, a creator who creates from nothing, from pure and total surrender to the moment and trust the intuition.
