From Passion and Anger to Drives and Falls

2012-02-05T05:27:00.000-08:00

dancer Jessie Au

Falling through trains of thoughts and arrays
I sought refuge from the constant surge of waves
Shared my inner vulnerability only to have
It repeated back to me my dear confidant
Once loved and dear to my heart
Stoked beyond excitement I headed toward
Your beacon only to find
My anger remained as you fed it well
Pitting my character against my drive
With your common perceptions
Construed preconceptions misconceptions
The drive once passion trailed yet rose again
Too many times I see this array disarray
Only to sleep into a deep slumber
Bringing another tomorrow
Another someone Again
You're not the only one Left
That I give Everything for
Never Again
The Anger that Rises and Falls
Rise On

...Less Taken

2011-06-09T22:55:00.000-07:00

On June 5, 2011, I was invited to view the Drive Dance Centre Scholarship 2011 graduating group's year end show. I was very moved by the wisdom and passion shared by each emerging dancer. What most moved me at the show was finding out about each person's journey on the path less taken ... what they had discovered and learned about themselves through the two year program.

A process and the experience

Thank you to photographer Julia Kozlov and dance artist Linda Arkelian for this shoot with dancers Marcelle Lemos and Thiago Fayad. I had the benefit of seeing their creative process at work and the opportunity to participate to photograph beautiful dancers Marcelle and Thiago. Here are some unedited photographs of memories I will cherish with me.
