Essential Dance Film - The Silence
Description of the artwork
This film suggests how one uses their body to create art in movement, essentially, what we call dance.
In dance, the body is the mobile figure or shape, felt by the dancer, seen by others.
And I further quote, “The body is the conduit between the inner realm of intentions, ideas, emotions and identity and the outer realm of expression and communication. Whether watching dance or dancing ourselves, we shift back and forth between the inner/outer sense of body.”
(“The elements of dance”, n.d.).
​
The body is undoubtedly the most important part for a dancer as it helps create movements, accentuates points in the choreography and so much more.
