Bamboo Interpretation of Ballet Dance

The piece is inspired by the elegant yet very sudden movements of the ballet dancer. It starts from the bottom with loops and crescent shaped waves demonstrating the short hops and glide of the ballet dancer across the floor. The movements are then entangled in the middle with various loops and sharp lines to express the sudden motions created. Finally the energy and movements of the piece is released outward in an explosive motion toward the top right of the piece expressing the final movements of the dance. This piece is also meant to convey a sense of stress and urgency, because the dancer's movements mimic those of a marionette. Therefore in many areas within the piece the loops are bound by string imitating those of a marionette.
