TRAGIC ELEGANCE

A sophisticated simplicity. An abrupt termination of fluidity.

The spark of perfection, a conspicuos execution, embedded in the works of a charismatic individual

- Mikhail Baryshnikov

 

 

The fabrics intertwine  to contrive an organic form. Spinning and tapping vibrantly. The pieces flow in harmony, interacting with each other to generate this fluid motion. However a tragic end follows. There is an abrupt end of movement. 

 

Upon scrutiny, execution is revealed. A prevalant wire mesh forms the backbone of this inherent form, encapsulated by the smoothness of layered synthetics. Intentional twisting emphasis the movement of fabric. Beauty of the form comes from its detail. Attention is placed into controlling the curves and twisting of the form. With a controlled and define execution, elegance can surface.

 

This is all in tandem with baryshnikov's manifesto - "Simplicity, transparency and making an earnest attempt." Baryshnikov expresses his intentions through the diligence he put into execution. He enforces a confident and firm stance, fortified by his exceptional effort, reflected on the sophistication and exquisiteness of his dance moves.
