Homage to 'La Danse'

by Lilllian Delevoryas

Matisse' painting 'La Danse' with nasturtiums' forms the backdrop of this homage to the master. The superimposed 'real' nasturtiums were painted from life, parodying the painted nasturtiums in Matisse's painting. Dotted surround echoes the rhythms of the picture

A small reproduction of Matisse's 'La danse with nasturtiums' was placed behind a bouquet of 'real' nasturtiums in bloom, which echoed the ones in the painting. The rhythm of the dancing nasturtiums picks up the flowing curves of the dancers, with the spirit of the dance carried out onto the border of dancing dots around the border.
