beauty must suffer by keron davis | link
the comments on this video when i saw it on instagram were full of lame fucks who were complaining about this being a ‘waste of pointe shoes’ which pisses me off but anyways im transfixed…the plaster statues of young dancers whose bodies are literally falling apart. the pointe shoes hanging next to a pair of boxing gloves. all the statues having pockets that show theyre hollow on the inside. the overwhelming pile of pink shoes with only a handful in black and brown. this is the first art piece ive ever seen thats about racism in the ballet world, and all of the things black dancers have to deal with in pursuit of the artistic perfection that ballet demands…goddamn. i love contemporary art. im going to be thinking about this for a while

Masterlist & Full Playlist

Plot: Two performing art schools are combined upon underlying reason bringing together an unlikely duo Moose and Alice who help each other grow beyond fluttering hearts and the genre of music.
Ep 1 overview: moose sees Alice for the first time and a little performance from her in which she reminds him of a miniature ballerina in a music box.

Moose pov:
If only looks could kill I’d be dead by now, she squints her brown eyes at me “cute, yeah” I agree with myself nodding and smile at her.
“ come on moose” I break my stare off and turn to Tyler “Huh” he rolls his eyes and pushes me along I turn back to where she stood on the school stairs but shes gone.
(Time skip ⏭ lunch)
I slam my lunch on the table and sit in silence “ what’s going on with you moose ?” I click my tongue in consideration “ well this girl I saw earlier” “ the one you were having a stare off with, she seem to be winning” he laughs out I cut in “ well yeah her and I plan to win next time” i smirk picking up a carrot.
Nora takes a seat “ have y’all heard the news?” “About what” I say turning to her “ the schools gonna join in with another it’s one of those prestige schools” Tyler’s ticks at that Nora adds in “it could be beneficial for everyone ”.
(Time skip ⏭ after school)
“Bye” I wave them off as they leave together I cross the street walking along the side of the school from earlier as I hear faint music I walk into the school following it to a open door it’s the same girl.

The music stops and she bows deeply immediately I start clapping she looks up startled “you dance like you belong in a music box, like the figure I mean, you’re really good is what I meant, I like the way you move” she laughs I got her to laugh “ thank you means a lot” she chews on her bottom lip and suddenly her eyes go wide “ you should probably get going ?” I swallow “ oh yeah, I guess see you ?” She hides her smile and looks at me “see yah” it’s a promise then.
Alice pov:
“What are you smiling about?, get this right so we can finish up” Alicia states and with that all happiness quickly disappears from the room as her words swallow it whole “sorry ma’am” I apologize resuming the steps.
{ it’s my 1st work so it’s not the best but I’m proud and hope you enjoyed}
