Gesture Spatiality

Gesture Spatiality is a theoretical construct within gesture studies that specifies the spatial characteristics and three-dimensional positional dynamics of gestures in relation to the body, environment, and co-speech context, distinguishing it from temporal or semantic gesture analyses by focusing exclusively on locational and directional parameters in communicative acts.
