Catherine Dancing for the Summer Solstice

 

Catherine Cisneros performs her Summer Solstice Dance within Christopher Janney’s “Passing Light” solar sculpture. June 21, 2013. Every year Catherine dances to celebrate the summer solstice at this site, in the parking garage of the San Antonio airport. It’s lightly promoted, and never very heavily attended. Really, it has more of a feeling of a personal ritual. Janney created this piece in collaboration with George Cisneros (Catherine’s husband), who provided the ambient audio which plays constantly.

King Wiliam Parade on E. Guenther St.

 

The best thing about living on my street is that the King William Parade passes right by my front door. Here are some scenes in slow motion. Many of the people in the parade are my friends, neighbors, or colleagues in the arts. The thumbnail image above is Paloma, a belly dancer. The other dancer, Martha (they both are members of Zombie Bazaar), points to me, and Paloma grins and comes and dances around me and my camera. How sweet.
