Description
On the 15th and final year of my working representationally while still residing in Paris, I paid tribute to the Russian God of dance, Vaslav Nijinsky, with a series entitled, L'Elue (the chosen one). My model at the time was a Bulgarian dance student by the name of Maya. However, in the last three months of this year I decided to revisit the work by applying my abstract gestural approach, the notion being to create intangible dancing, something I felt my previous series back in 1988 lacked. This new work fuses representational, gestural abstraction and Asemic writing.
