body of dance 2

26 July - 12 August 2007

 

Butoh, tango and flamenco on canvas and paper. “I’ve been inspired to create the Body of Dance exhibition from my life long interest in music and dance. I’ve held a strong fascination for the human body and all its unique expressions. The human figure is so amazing and expressive, especially in dance and the only way to capture the movement of the body is to draw it quickly. The strokes of the brush are as fast as the actual movement of the body."
