She seeks to bring forward the contradictions between the expectations of society and an individual’s sense of self. Her focus is on women and the stark standards that have been established for a woman’s appearance. After finding a study made by the U.S. government in 1940 to standardize the woman's body, she  created a geometrical shape using the measurements generated by the study and presented in drawings and in three-dimensional figures.  Her exploration of shape goes deeper through her work with the study of the body language.  The pose is shapes, and shape is both a noun and a verb, to understand the human behavior is imperative to see it at a whole. Their mission is to promote the production of dance as a form of art by bringing cultural and artistic awareness to the communities through cultural, educational and charitable activities, to function as a dance company, providing a ground for the creation of new dance works by the Founding Artistic Director, to develop future dancers and expansion of audiences, through dance concerts, classes and workshops, to be an active agent in Gallery 217                                                                      Performance Theatre Lobby Linda Behar Art          Capturing BrazzDanceOct. 18th  Reception  5:00pm - 7:00 pm  |  Artist Lecture   4:30pm - 5pm Exhibition                                                              Exhibition&the discussion of dance as a form of art, its philosophy, history, aesthetics and furtherance of the Founding Artistic Director’s artistic vision.
