We had a great time kickin’ around McKinley Park this afternoon with @seechicagodance! Inverted dynamos are @lauratennal and @modernballerina, photo by @mattgriffo #textiledances #chidance #chicagodancemonth #sitespecific #armknitting #danceeverywhere . Image description: a long green textile hangs from a tree in a sunny park. In the foreground a young person with long dark blonde hair wearing a blue tshirt faces away from the camera, watching two dancers, one on either side of the tree. Each dancer plants her hands on the ground, kicking her legs up with flexed feet while bending at the waist, forming an upside down “L” shape.
