One takko for @momony0.

Sketch for a hypothetical sculpture. A mashup between Degas’ “Little Dancer Aged Fourteen” and Danziger’s “Nimrod”.

Degas was known misogynist, who was quoted comparing the ballet dancers he made a career out of drawing, to work horses and rats. His Little Dancer used to be one of my favorite sculptures, until I saw it last year in DC and read up about it and him, and what I learned saddened me deeply.

I carried that sadness around for a while. Yesterday I went to the Israel Museum and saw another one of my all time favorite sculptures, Nimrod. The biblical character Nimrod is described as “a mighty hunter before the Lord.” But the root from which his name comes means “to rebel,” and in Talmudic literature, he is the despised idolater who erected the Tower of Babel in order to overthrow God. Danziger took the hawk on Nimrod’s shoulder from Egyptian art, underscoring the link between his sculpture and the ancient pagan world. The absence of legs likens the figure to an archaeological find, as does the reddish sandstone from Petra.

I suddenly realized how similar they look- same arm pose, same defiant, chin-up manner.

So I gave the little dancer a hawk, and cut off her “work horse” legs, and finally her defying stance is complete. She can finally rebel against her oppressors, armed with Nimrod’s mythical hunting abilities and his intent to overthrow the powers who would dominate him. Time’s up.

From Terajima-sensei’s tweet (2). “When he was happy so he talked a lot.” (Birthday party in 3rd year in elementary school) Miyuki :No one leaves the present and cake on the table, right? I immediately saw them when I came home!! And you know we both don’t like chocolate cake, don’t you!? We couldn’t eat all of it last year!! And I don’t want that glove, I will go to change it later. What I really want is catcher’s mitt!! His dad : Can I drink a beer now…? ————————————— I’m sorry if my posts have a mistake.
