Elemental Dance

Elemental Dance was designed to create a waterscape by using conventional and
unconventional materials and methods in a somewhat realistic manner. This piece
began as a study on how to portray water working with fiber as a medium. Elemental
Dance refers to the show that Mother Nature orchestrates as a cool brisk ocean
breeze accompanies the rolling tides dancing along the rocky shore. Earth, water
and air are major players in this audio and visual interplay.
