On Invisibility; or, towards a minor jujitsu

Meer over het boek

Exploring the interplay between visibility and invisibility, this work delves into the complexities of relationality, particularly in the context of jiu-jitsu. It posits that each act of seeing carries the risk of blindness, emphasizing that true understanding of another is rooted in their unknowability. The book suggests that while we may engage with jiu-jitsu through practice and encounters, its essence remains elusive. This enigmatic quality leads to a reliance on art, as our grasp of jiu-jitsu will always be incomplete, represented only by fragments and sketches.
