Connection Collage

There are many connections made in dance, whether it takes place between two people or just one person and a ribbon. When two people dance together they rely on eachother to stay in balance and in harmony, and are always aware of the space around them. The connection a dancer has with the space around them can be something very magical. A single dancer with a ribbon can give the illusion of taking up a lot of space and then quickly contract allowing other dancers to occupy his or her space and never colliding. Like buildings when one dancer moves the other moves in a way that compliments and supports his or her partner sometimes creating forms that seem impossible to be standing on their own.

    Saw this link for you.
    The use of the movement of dance is a wonderful metaphor for your project. The fluidity of the dancers - do they touch, connect, spin, rotate... I can start to visualize the architectural forms.
