| The next Degas? Zarin's candid 'snapshot' of dancers awaiting their cue shares that same spontaneity perfected by the Impressionist master, rendered in muted yet glowing pastels. The subtle visual arrangement, conveyed by the angle of the dancers' tutus, creates multiple polarities, symbolizing the contrasts of pleasure and artistic discipline. Though depicted in repose, there's a lyrical quality to the figures of the dancers which lifts the spirit and inspires the imagination. |
