Dancing to Abstraction

The body of work is about a group of contemporary dancers that I photographed over and eight-week period in their rehearsal studio in preparation for the production of “Cabaret Dances”, produced by Jean Isaacs San Diego Dance Theater.   I had begun photographing the dancers during their “Trolley Dances” in a conventional way.   As a painter, however, I wanted to photograph the dancers in a way that gives the feeling of painting.
