Heather Hansen, a native of New Orleans, incorporates the movement of yoga with charcoal art. Heather takes a large piece of white paper and several pieces of charcoal and records the body's movement through the poses. The pictures turn into mostly circles, which is interesting considering it reflects the movement of the body.
This is wonderful because it is as much performance art as the end result. When she takes to the beach and uses the scene with sand to construct basically the same idea. The movement of the body comes together makes a wonderful connection to the piece and the reflection of the body.
