17th Annual Smithsonian Magazine Photo Contest Altered Images
Don't shoot the messenger

The picture suggests a dancer bent forwards holding her head in her hands at the same time as black liquid explodes from her head. This image represents my shift from a career as a dancer to that of a visual artist. It is the beginning of my explorations into how these two artforms - dance and visual arts - can collide and where the intersections might be.
