In 1995 I took some wonderful dancers from the School
of Modern Dance in Amsterdam,
into my studio to make a series of photographs called Spirit of Dance. It
was a very experimental project. The dancers improvised without music and
I improvised with my Hasselblad.
I used a series of techniques, flash and long shutter speeds, and different
films, such as instant polaroid black and white film.
I wanted to show with my camera what it felt like to be a dancer, moving and
improvising like a musician would do. I shot them nude to express the pure
forms of the body.
