Sketching-dancing

[By Marina Grechanik, in Israel]

Our last sketchcrawl was at a dance studio. We were invited to sketch a dancing lesson of a group which belongs to Rio Abierto movement . I love to sketch processes, people in motion – is really exciting mission, so naturally I jumped at the opportunity. But I didn’t expected that combination of sketching with dance, and maybe with specific kind of dance – free, connected from inside to outside, would make the experience even stronger, and would take it to another level!

I think that it IS possible to transfer energy, emotion, feeling in a fast and expressive sketch. For me those sketches like a memories in the bottle – when I look at them I can taste again some flavor of this experience.

It was a huge fun! And I even joined to the dancers 😉

We are going to organize another sketching-dancing meeting, stay tuned!
