Continuing my exploration of motion in dance, I completed, "Three Dancers". This piece isn't as abstract as my previous movement piece as you can identify each of the individual dancers frozen in their dynamic poses.
It's amazing to me the myriad of forms that the human body can take on portraying a vast array of emotions. As a member of Spoke 'N Motion contemporary dance company, I've come to experience this first hand, although I'm but a neophyte in this artistic medium of motion. (Yes, even as a 59 year old white male, one can extend oneself into new endeavors!)
Interested in seeing people of all abilities and disabilities coming together to perform synchronous movement? Then check out their Facebook page at https://www.facebook.com/SpokeNMotionDance/ for information about their upcoming performance in June. Yes, so for one number I might be paired with someone who was at one time the highest paid principle ballerina in the United States and for the next number I might be paired with a 14 year old girl in a wheel chair, who is also partially deaf, but has amazingly choreographed an amazing piece for our June performance! It really is an amazingly diverse group of people whom I love dearly!
