The body is your instrument in dance, but your art is outside that creature, the body.
Sentiment: NEGATIVE
It is upon the length and breadth and span of a body sustained in muscular action that dance invokes its image.
Dance is the only art of which we ourselves are the stuff of which it is made.
My mother was a dancer, so I like to use the body as part of the instrument of acting.
The dance can reveal everything mysterious that is hidden in music, and it has the additional merit of being human and palpable. Dancing is poetry with arms and legs.
I see dance being used as communication between body and soul, to express what it too deep to find for words.
Every music - except dance music, which is for dancing, I suppose - is for the spirit of the human being, and not for the body.
I can actually feel the interior body of a dancer. I have the ability to capture a split second... I want you to be hit with whatever the essence is of this sculpture.
The dancer's body is simply the luminous manifestation of the soul.
To dance is to be out of yourself. Larger, more beautiful, more powerful. This is power, it is glory on earth and it is yours for the taking.
Dance is the hidden language of the soul of the body.
