The burden to inspire falls upon the shoulders of those occupying the position of artist. Much like the painter uses the blank canvas, straying from words, to express profound emotion through the strokes of the brush and the convergence of a profuse outpouring of color, the stage is a dancer’s canvas. However, the canvas of the dancer does not hold a permanent record of brush strokes and colors. The influence on the audience is the only record of the masterpiece’s existence. This is the drive and importance of captivating the audience; an immense weight is carried upon the shoulders of the dancer, if the dancer fails, his or her moment will be lost forever in a dismissal from existence.
