This is an early work exploring the shapes formed by the body, which has found a resonance with my most recent interest in contemporary dance.  In this study the body forms and claims a volume of space, whose shape is expressive of its feelings.  It communicates through the tension of the limbs rather than facial expression.  Its position is near collapse but in delicate balance.

I am a practicing architect, and now looking back at some of the earlier studies that shaped my understanding of space, the movement of bodies in space, and my later interest in contemporary dance. I was born in Moscow and came to Canada when I was ten. I think I saw the world from a different side which made me more attentive to it. I enjoyed drawing and working as a theatre make-up artist - drawing directly on the body and transforming it. Twenty years later, I moved again, this time to London, England. I continued working in architecture and in parallel discovered the beauty of dance as a medium of composing form and capturing the fragility of the body. Another ten years later I moved again to Canada. I have always felt that time moves along an expanding spiral.
