​The Rite of Spring  / Love Dies Dancing

Les filles (2017)

CLICK ON A THUMBNAIL TO SEE FULL IMAGE
​Les Filles, and their partner painting  Love Dies Dancing, explore the awful paradox at the centre of the Rite’s narrative: that the awakening of new life must also entail a terrible sacrifice. Spring is the beginning, but also an appalling end.
​

The resulting ‘dancers’ in these works are intended as paradoxes between the two states. Poised somewhere between dancing and drowning they are at once symbols of fertility – of life – and reminders of our fragile mortality.
