Tension

In my project "Tension" I function as a visual choreographer, creating a unique language of movement that is the outcome of a verbal dialogue between the photographed dancer and I. Photography's inherent power lies in its ability to capture a single moment whereas dance captures a series of continuous movements. In my work I try to combine the quintessential essence of these two art forms. I experiment by layering several images on top of each other, searching for intriguing combinations. The layered images let the viewer contemplate the various movements and newly formed abstractions, that the human eye can not normally see.
