Affections
The
subject derives from a ballet
"Romeo and Juliet"
by Frederick
Ashton. It uses one of the famous 'Pas des deux' that feature in that ballet
and are so typical of the choreography of Ashton. He causes the two dancers to
melt so that they become like one person whilst retaining their individual grace
and sexuality. My work with dancers seeks to convey such feelings without simply
illustrating them. The dynamic of the dance and making of a powerful image using
a beautiful subject is a constant challenge to John Mills. There are many version
to this body of work since 1995, that we will cover in our sculpture trail.
