Dance is Home #8- Inside Art

Dive inside a piece of art and escape reality.

In your house:

1. Choose a painting or photograph.
2. Imagine that you are inside the piece of art.
3. Create a story that involves you inside the piece. 
4. Reflect the story through movement.​

​In “Sound On” (#7) earlier this week, I enjoyed the opportunity to pause, listen, and try new styles so much that I decided it would be fun to dive deeper, let go, and explore a new reality. This dance can go in many directions. 

From following the brush strokes to having a chat with the painter, have fun, laugh, cry, or put on a costume. Play with being literal and abstract! Use any of the suggestions below to expand on this mini dance. Remember this can be as simple or complex as you want. It’s yours to make. Take your time and play!

Can you:

• Give the piece a title.
• Does your character have a name? What/who are you?
• What relationships do you have with the images? How do you feel in the piece? 
• Float, analyze, carve, shift.

​Today’s focus: RELATIONSHIPS-Why/When/With Who?

Happy dance making!!
