Dancing

Childhood ballet classes began a life-long passion for movement and dance, with associated stories and myths – a powerful thread running through human cultures since the beginning of time. The universality of dance and its expression through movement – is a window into the human spirit – a source of inspiration that has informed Alison’s later art-work, including the Whirling Dervishes Series (Konya, Turkey) and African Rhythms Series.
