Motion

I love the dance-like elegance that this simple set up of fans and fabric create. There are even moments where the motion of fabric matches perfectly with the music.
I wonder why my mind wants to create a story between these two pieces of fabric. Their relationship of dancing, becoming intertwined, separating for a bit, rising, falling, separate but connected. Maybe it's just the romantic in me that seeks to draw some correlation to life and relationships. You have the influence of the fans all around pushing everything to the center. And yet the fabric is tossed around the circle, often reaching to the very ends unable to break the invisible barrier.
Or maybe I am drawn to the freedom of the motion. As I watch, I can feel my body resting seeking to become part of the wind blown dance.
