So me and my dad went to the RA yesterday to check out the DEGAS AND THE BALLET exhibiton.
I'm not gonig to lie, many of the more recent shows I have seen at the RA have been dreadfully currated (British sculpture exhibiton left much to be desired and the summer exhibition this year was the worst I've seen).
The Degas exhibition however overreached all expectations and was well created and filled with the majority of his works as well as some works of Eadweard Muybridge and other capturers of movement.
So this blog is going to be dedicated to my favourite images from the exhibition which I totally recommend people going to.
Both my dad and I loved this image of Degas's. I like it because of the use of colour and how all three dancers share the same qualities between them.
It also helps that they remind me of me and my ballet girls.
And finally a bit of Muybridge
The exhibition has made me want to capture movement in a more expressive manner now so watch out for some Muybridgesque photographs or Degas like sketches
