Shapes & Silhouettes

Dance is simply moving art. It is the formation and morphing of shapes and images designed with the human body. Artists have long used shadows and silhouettes, with their absence of interior detail, as a metaphor for the artistic soul. Similarly, dance can capture a glimpse of the inner-self. Life is a dance floor, so move to your own rhythm.

The smell of gasoline in the summer heat
Boy, we're going way too fast
It's all too sweet to last."
