Concept art implementation

The dancer’s body became the brush, infusing the canvas with the vibrant energy of Puerto Rican Salsa. Bold red and black strokes captured the drama and emotion of the dance, reflecting the intensity of each movement, the sharpness of a spin, the closeness between partners, and the electric rhythm of the music.

This artwork is a tribute to the passion, connection, and resilience of Salsa, preserved in a limited edition series. It celebrates the fluidity, energy, and powerful spirit of the dance, always in motion, always alive.
