Awaken our prescence
Artist statement: about this series
Capture [in motion]
The exploration of the body movement, combined by the music inspiration, creates a unique way of freedom that translates into the freshness of the moment. I tried to capture that spirit through the camera, by deeply connected with the magic moment that the dancers transmit with their soul-body connection.
Using the concept of watercolor brush with my camera ,I felt inspired by the painter Valerie Daval ,while she was drawing the dancers alive.
I want to share that in this particular work I was dancing from the soul with the dancers before, I took the pictures ,so I connected deeply with their energy that I translate later on ,with the camera, capturing the soul energy level, the unseen, allowing the universe channel through me with the camera. as a way of meditation.
