Quote:
    "Actualism calls upon an artist to manipulate what is at hand in order to transcend the mind, so it is action which becomes the machine that creates the art. When an artist uses actualism as their form of art, it means the work is constructed in a meditative state of solidarity enabling action to be primary in a creations execution and the idea to a perfunctory affair."
