A Passion Undivided

Oil on canvas.

60x40"

This painting was inspired by a scene from a German choreographer called Pina Bausch. I saw a documentary on Bausch a several years ago and was fascinated by her imagery and arrangements. Some time ago, I rescued this canvas from being discarded and it became a project during the beginning of the pandemic. In this large canvas, I tried to capture the intense emotional interaction between the dancers.
This painting was accepted in the Ontario Society of Artists Annual Show in 2020.
