A Limited Edition Bronze: Mon-ke-ne: Omaha Siouxian for Graceful Walker. She embodies the flow and grace of dance and the joy it brings to our lives and cultures. Dance is about finding the balance and harmony of life and singing it with the body. An expression of interior energy and opposites, it can manifest itself in joy or pain, humor or sadness, life or death, but always it is about balance, a necessary and fundamental activity within any culture. It is about walking in beauty and treading lightly upon the earth. A people without dance are a people without life itself. c. A Pauwels 1994
