The life-sized sculpture ‘Dancer’ (2019) presents a Brazilian dancer during an 'off' moment. Resigned, and with her eyes closed, she is smoking a cigarette in an old Chesterfield chair. Her exuberant clothing, with an impressive crown of plumes, contrasts sharply with the performer who is not performing and taking a quiet moment for herself. The sculpture expresses a frozen, silenced cheerfulness.
