I remember this dancer as if it was yesterday - and it was over thirty years ago! I have always had a fascination for the grace and beauty of Balinese dancers. Soon after I left school, I spent my first wages buying two porcelain figurines of Balinese dancers. So imagine my joy to finally get to visit Bali and actually see the grace and skill of these dancers first hand in a live performance. Such beautifully expressive movements, including subtle movements of the hands, head and eyes that are captivating to watch. Apparently, official training for a Balinese dancer starts from the age of seven.
This photo art piece is based on a photograph I took while visiting Bali some thirty years ago which has been scanned into my computer (from the original printed version) and worked on digitally.
