Artwork Description

The image is a print of a watercolor study of a young dancer, probably back stage, lost in the mystery of dance. The title is from T.S. Elliot's "Burnt Norton" which reads in part; "at the still point of the turning world, there the dance is—neither from nor towards—and do not call it fixity".
