"Quantum Dance" is joyous. It is movement, connection to the Universe and beyond, full of possibilities, questions with no answers, not needing answers.
The pose was inspired by "Afternoon of a Faun," originally danced by Nijinsky in 1912. Very beautiful and very strange. Here's a link to Nureyev's version: Nureyev dancing "Afternoon of a Faun" , much easier to see than the fragmented film of the original: Nijinsky dancing "Afternoon of a Faun". Can you find the pose?
This piece in basswood is approximately 15" high, 12" wide.
