corporeality
Having material form
Corporeality is the quality of having a physical body or material form.
The term appears in philosophical and religious discussions contrasting physical existence with spiritual or abstract being: The corporeality of the resurrection was debated by early theologians.
In everyday use, it emphasizes tangible, bodily presence: The corporeality of the sculpture—its weight and texture—made it more powerful than any photograph.
