In order to set off the matter and let it express yourself, humouring your intimate desire of freedom, you first have to know it, court it, bridle it, be screwed, fight with it. What better way then, than to force it in useful shapes,  somehow understanding its rebellions, favouring its stretches, mediating its aspect. And, still, learning from the craftsman the correct approach, the use of the iron and the skills that it requires.
