about

"The Mountain of Signs" is the name of a chapter from the Antonin Artaud book, "The Peyote Dance," a short memoir about his 1936 visit to the Tarahumara tribe of northwestern Mexico. This opening chapter depicts his visions of moving through the stark, rocky Mexican mountains by horseback upon his arrival and seeing human figures, poetic manifestations, in every stone and outcropping.

"I seemed to read everywhere a tale of childbirth amid war, a tale of genesis and chaos, with all these bodies of gods which were carved like men, and these truncated human statues. Not one shape that was intact, not one body that did not appear as if it came out of a recent massacre, not one group where I could avoid reading the struggle that divided it."

"Whether it was the mountain or myself which was haunted, I cannot say, but I saw similar optical miracles during this periplus across the mountain, and they confronted me at least once every day."
