Dancers I is the ballet dancer wall art print that opened Paola Minekov's Dancers series, and it introduces her deep love and admiration for the art of dance.
Thick strokes describe a central group of angular ballet figures. By emphasising the geometry of their elaborate gestures, Paola keeps the essential elegance of the dance. Through layers of olive, ochre and umber you can read the influence of cubist facets, and the dynamic composition lets you sense the rhythm of the movement, almost hearing the music these abstracted dancers perform to.
The earthy palette sits beautifully in a living room, study or bedroom, and makes this a meaningful gift for a dancer or ballet lover.
