Percussive

11:00 a.m.-1:30 a.m. At the Toronto Tabla Ensemble Studio. Dancing to the percussive beats of Huelelpega Sound System, and listening to the eerie voices and rhythms of LAL. Saara and I start the dance party, pulling people off the floor and onto their feet in this tiny studio. The rhythms are infectious. Movements are simultaneously curvaceous and syncopated, pulling at the beats. Can’t stop dancing. The day was gorgeous. Planting the garden, wandering the streets, and biking down by the lake. Rejuvenation after exhaustion. Alice puts me to bed at 2:30 a.m. I post the drawing the following day.
