Today we present an exciting project by three artists who are passionate about ART. A multidisciplinary sculptor and two dancers unite their sensitivity, talent and passion to share with the world the emotion that gives meaning to our existence. We are Embrace. Art & Dance is the pure connection of the essence of the meaning of Art and Life, of what we are and what helps us to move forward.
Three artists: Ana Hernando, Emily Chamberlin and Peter James. Three continents: Europe, America and Africa. Two disciplines: Sculpture and Dance. One passion: Art.
Life offers us unexpected and wonderful encounters, connections that make us feel and grow by sharing who we are. Artists have a special look, they perceive what surrounds them in a unique way, what they feel they have to share no matter how much effort it takes, no matter if it is a leap into the void, no matter if someone else is able to see it or feel it too. That is the essence of the artist... to create in order to share with the world the emotion that makes them vibrate . When we discover the artist's gaze something changes in us, when we connect with their message and make that emotion our own we also look differently.
Each artist finds the medium in which to express themselves. In this case, sculpture and dance have come together to complement each other, to multiply the emotion that dwells within a work of art and to concentrate the emotion that movement expresses. ART.
Ana Hernando created the sculpture "We are embrace" in 2020, to remember that in the worst moments of the covid-19 pandemic we needed to feel that universal embrace that unites us to each other as human beings, in that embrace we recognise consolation, pain, reunion and hope. A powerful and powerful work full of sensitivity.
Emily Chamberlin and Peter James, who already knew Ana's work, felt the need to express what this sculpture meant, they wanted to capture that emotion through the language that defines them: dance. Art in movement... Art & Dance. The two dancers connected deeply with the life that the works created by this multidisciplinary artist have, and she also felt how both were able to express that life with their movements. Three artists united by their vocation and connected with the aim of sharing what makes them feel, carrying the essence of the human being as hope and strength to move forward.
We are Embrace. Art & Dance is an opportunity to get to know each other better and to give the best of ourselves. Art that is medicine for the soul and Dance that makes every step a new heartbeat.
Welcome!
