MOVSUM: A Journey of Lines and Shapes
<h2><strong>The Art of Dance</strong></h2>
<p>From exciting hip-hop dance floors to the expansive canvas of digital artistry, my journey has always revolved around lines and movement. Dancing, especially hip-hop, was my first true language — a means through which I translated the world around me. There was artistry even in the manner a dancer’s body contorted and twisted to the beat of the music. It was in this universe of pulsating beats and rhythmic gyrations that I discovered Wassily Kandinsky’s book <em>Point and Line to Plane</em>.</p>

<p>Wassily Kandinsky’s book <em>Point and Line to Plane</em></p>
<p>Kandinsky’s philosophical interpretations of geometry, as expressed through the human body, struck a chord with me. As I danced, I often imagined myself as part of his sketches. My own overhead videos of dance became akin to his paintings, where I was the moving figure, rendering art with every step and twist. However, I’m getting ahead of myself here and need to take you several years back, so you can really get the full picture.</p>
