Fun fact Kartuli is a courting dance.

Another fanart of And Then We Danced / და ჩვენ ვიცეკვეთ (2019) dir. Levan Akin

I know most of you would simply put Merab and Irakli dancing together above that text BUT in my opinion it would be a sin not to use Irakli's dance-coded nonverbal message to Merab since it fits "KEEP CALM" so damn well!!!

Well, dear fellow ATWD fans - It seems like I'm starting another art series! Its working title is: "ideas so obvious I can't believe nobody did that before me"

In other words - this is so uncreative and style-lacking that my own brain doesn't even recognise it as my art... But I couldn't not let it exist once I got that idea, right? Somebody should've made it years ago! - so if I can't find it then let that "somebody" be me, that's all🤷

do you ever think about how dancing for other animals is a mating ritual? we all find people who can dance well super attractive. back in the day, balls and dance halls were places to scope out potential suitors: formalised dresswear as well as being smooth with the moves was essential to presenting oneself and one’s prowess and confidence to society. the nobility was taught not only political, socioeconomic, and linguistic knowledge, but how to dance as well. is dancing a human mating ritual? or, the better question: what’s stopping humans from embracing dance more? in this essay, i will explain why i find dancers so damn attractive…

More Georgian Dancing

I dont normally watch dance routines, but Georgian dancing is mesmerizing:

@fayriequeene : i'd like to include some of the visual aspects of this dance in our ballet. The limbs are creating bold shapes and the use of the sharpness of heels and toes leads to stark visual effect. I do like the idea of the dance group getting larger as the scene unfolds.
