This essay proposes an understanding of transformation (förvandling) as a bridging between body and soul through active imagination. The act of active imagination is upheld as an act of the spirit, in the sense of being a mediator between body and soul. Three different theories grounded in the philosophy of Aristotle will be put together in order to explore this process of transformation. Although based on theory, this essay will be embodied through examples from the dance-aesthetic butoh.
