Artist Statement:
I have always been
fascinated by ballet and
acrobatics: wide spaces...
bodies in movement, in the
moment of establishing
balance ... on the
trapeze... in the act of
juggling... bodies which
float without any support
at intervals free from
Earth's gravity. Movements
defined by the shape of
the body, the lenght of
ligaments, the force of
the muscles and elasticity
.
What I am
particulary interested in
are the movements which
happen against all the
laws of flexibility of
human skeleton and joints,
as if they practically did
not exist. Legs and feet
strained to improve the
balance... While straining
they twist the hip, which
in its turn affects the
position of the spine.
Ballet dancers and acrobats
perform them automatically,
with no reflection, and
in doing so they bring
all the parts of their
bodies into an
extraordinarily harmonious
balance. The moments in
which they jump into the
air, perform complex
movements while still in
the air, and, equally
balancing the weight of
their bodies, they land on
their feet - the
foundations for balancing
and support of the body.
My goal is to
capture the moment of
balance or the point of
support in which the body
touches the surface...
