What this tiny little whisp of a person who moves with total confidence.

Watch this tiny little whisp of a person who moves with total confidence.
There is a point where she draws a line and steps over it with her back foot ... without looking back.
I also enjoy how she pushes the onlookers back with the pigment powder.
She's making this like she's got sixteen more of them to do today.

@futurebird Im only 90 seconds in and already in awe. The way she does the detail at the bases without even slowing down during a single line. Straight line and wavy one in the same motion, it's beautiful

@futurebird my lower back seized up just looking at this. Amazing skill!

@futurebird Amazing and beautiful. The way she's able to do the words and the fine designs in white using her hand the way a cake decorator uses different tips to get parallel curls at one point, straight lines at another, just wow! And yeah, when she starts putting down the starburst colors and everyone has to jump back! Loved it; thank you for finding and sharing.

There was an art history professor at my college who annoyed me with how he'd go on and on about the "masculinity and power of Jackson Pollock" and I was like "I don't get it. How are paint splatters ... masculine?"
"Well if you only saw a video of him painting you'd get it."
"Ok."
Anyway I still don't get it. Or maybe I do if the professor had confused confidence and skill with "masculinity."
(This was 25 years ago. I can hold a intellectual grudge. Ima send him this video.)

"you can tell how manly a man is by how he puts ketchup on a hot dog" --that guy, probably

@futurebird I've found that confusing confidence with masculinity is not uncommon, despite me not understanding how or why.

@futurebird yes, people do tend to assign some traits as "Masculine" and some as "Feminine" . Wierd

@futurebird Just mesmerizing! The parallel curvy lines in one go, each line coming from between different fingers is quite unbelievable

@futurebird
I am fully convinced that there are thousands of parallel universes where he died in obscurity. -
@futurebird
I am fully convinced that there are thousands of parallel universes where he died in obscurity.I haven't paid much attention to him if I'm honest. I just find the way people talk about Jackson Pollock to be frequently irritating. Either it's someone who just doesn't even want to try to see non-representational art, or they have so much to say it feels a little absurd and I start to sympathize with the "my kid could do that" crowd.
Personally I like that he made big paintings. They are really large! It's overwhelming the canvass swallows you.
It's nice.
Next question.
