super excited for The Art of Aqualumina, non-profit book & gallery exhibit Kickstarter here!
The Moribayassa is a very old dance performed by women celebrating the dissipation of bad luck or terrible circumstances, the shedding of old trials, and a turn towards the good. The river and water are a major feature in the dance and represent the cleansing away of old problems to make way for new hopes.

Wow! Amazing work! Love it!
I was wondering if you could let me us this image for an Android game called "Kingdoms of Myth", it's turn based strategy game based on a fantasy World. You can find a little bit more info in this rough website made by my colleges lifeisinfinity.eu5.org/infinit… (Sorry for the bad English). Of course you will have full credits of your work and link to your webpage if you want
Lot of thanks for your time
P.D: By the way we just created now a Facebook with more recent pictures: www.facebook.com/kingdomsofmyt…
She reminds me people of the tribe of Korra from the Legend of Korra (brown skin, blue eyes and powers related to water). I wonder if they got their inspiration from this dance.
