  • Why did you create this work?
    These are part of a brand design project for a tango school that emphasises tango as a tool for not only mastering dance but also developing soft skills and emotional intelligence. I used a parabola to symbolise growth and the bounciness of tango movements. Newton's apple was added to represent knowledge and wisdom. The interlaced legs resemble a DNA molecule, symbolising systemic approach.
