36 x 24 x 1.5" Acrylic mixed medium on Gallery Wrapped Canvas-Archival and varnished
'Music of the Shoes' painting has been inspired by my heritage, my roots of connection to nature and the earth. The percussion sounds in the music created by the tapping of the feet with connection to ground. In the penal laws dating back to the 1600 -1700s, the step dance was believed to depict poverty and was banned from being performed in public outdoors. So, secretly it was taken indoors on the stone cottage floors where it evolved. In the 1930s standing up and speaking out, the Irish culture was promoted by Irish dance governing bodies such as the Clancy Brothers and has continued to be taught and performed around the world with one of the major influencers, Michael Flatley.
