This is a personal response of English artist Michael Daks in relation to 9/11. Originally titled 'Tara dances for World Peace'. The artist says of his work '... if only peace could be achieved by dancing.'
Similarly to Daks, my video will be a personal response to the daily attack against self-confidence in western societies. I love how he has used flour and spray paint on Tara's body to create a peace symbol. The still shots paired with imagery of war make an effective piece. The use of still images set to music in this way could be another possibility for me to explore.
