Performance Art

In class today we had a special guest speaker/performer. She is an artist named Amy Kaps. It was fascinating to watch her perform. This class is fast becoming one of my favorites - more of an art class than a photography class. There is very little technique being taught (which is such a welcome relief from the minutia of f-stop and shutter speed details in other classes). It is very inspiring.

For the theatre one needs long arms; it is better to have them too long then too short. An artiste with short arms can never, never make a fine gesture.
