Carnaval does not spring from the refined world of ballet, but from the elemental, tribal rhythms of a far earlier form of dance. Bedecked with the feathers of exotic birds, this dancer conjures images of the type of dance performed barefoot around a communal fire; primitive and unrestrained. Plumed, masked, and powerful, she communicates energy and freedom, and demonstrates again the excitement of movement like no other.
