Page 20. Veiled and Masked Dancer, by AnonymousWhile painters create art with paint, burshes, and canvas, dancers create art with their bodies and the space around them. This elegant dancer performs her dance cloaked in a costume that covers her from head to toe. If you look closely at her face, youll notice that she also wears a mask. Her concealing costume gives her an air of mystery. How else would you describe this dancer?Although the statuette is made of bronze, its easy to imagine the dancers sluid and graceful movements. The deep folds and lines of cloth that drape and fall in different directions seem to move with her body. Some parts of her body are visible beneath the metal "fabric" of her costume, such as her arm and elbow. What other realistic details did the artist include to make the dancer look more lifelike? Imagine you are this dnacer and try to re-create her dramatic movements.
