smoke 3/3

[@leoninsf]

Watching her dance, I see LIFE with all of its aspects: struggles, love, relationsship, solitude, angers... The dance is so beautiful, so emotional...Thanks so much for posting.

[@AngelaPeters]

This may well be the most beautiful dance I have ever seen. She is enchanting and haunting at the same time. Incredible.

[@bayderman]

terrific, honest, and deepest human mind.

[@seexcedee]

I saw this video three years ago and I really didn't liked it, I think mainly because deep down, I did not understand. But time passed and I grew as an artist and as a human being and the way I see the world change ... and luckily I saw this piece again, and this time, I moved from the depths of my soul. Sylvie is one of the most enlightened artists out there, there's magic in each of their movements.

[@BlancheSolitude]

es impresionante la cantidad de emociones que es capaz de expresar el cuerpo humano sin proninciar ni un solo sonido. qué grande. eso es ARTE. gracias.

[@matt-james2368]

My ex showed me this video. We were both 21 years old at the time. I was instantly touched by what I was seeing. I snuck a glance at his face as he watched on his own. His facial expression was so beautiful. That was the moment I fell in love with him. To this day 9 years later when I watch this I still tear up thinking about him. This woman is heartbroken and alone. Corroded by pain and loss. Her movements show all of that and so much more. Her mannerisms are the visual representation of sadness and despair. It's so beautiful and haunting. The moment he comes back dancing with her is cathartic and beautiful.

[@leoninsf]

I wish that one day, I would touch my audience as the way she touches my heart. Sometimes, there is no need for fancy costumes, for magnificant stage, or all that glitters... to make me cry! thank you, Sylvie!

[@gianfrancocimarosti897]

Dio che emozione!!!

[@crisgranda]

She is my favorite dancer...amazing, her movements are so perfect, so coordinated, and her expressions so vivid, just perfect!

[@fjhaydn6047]

My favorite too. I can't believe there are critics that oppose her for leaving traditional ballet. If they had a real eye for beauty they would appreciate variety in art. Everyone can't be doing dying swan. She did her part for them; the contemporary ballet is her special gift to the world.

[@stephaniemagritte]

she's wonderful...

[@tarantellalarouge7632]

Cette fille est un pur génie, il n'y en a pas beaucoup et ça fait du bien .... elle apporte une autre dimension à toute chorégraphie, il y a elle et les autres ....

[@georgiamagica]

who knew, that someone could be so gifted both in body and expression.... There others too fo course, but its so darn rare...

[@swordfishtrombone5]

Absolute perfection. Sublime beauty. I've never been so moved by a dance(r). She is breathtaking, and the choreography/dramaturgy is just fantastic. Thank you for posting this one...

[@ellandelachapelle]

Wow! That was the most amazing ballet I´ve ever seen! First time I see this ASTOUNDING woman! (although I´ve seen Mats Ek and his ballets many times.)

[@YardenRaz1]

One of my favorite tracks , one of my favorite dancers and one of my favorite choreographers.

[@LINAKI123]

her dance is flawless..she's is the best

[@nykanenrita4415]

One of the most beautiful performance ever done...Just Great🙏❤️

[@rojeda49]

"Wet Woman" me estremece... "Wet Woman" makes me tremble... pero "Smoke" simplemente me hace llorar sin saberlo... but "Smoke" simply makes me cry without noticing why... ¡Es simplemente magistral!... It is simply magistral!

[@sarahselina]

I only found this through my dance course... and oh my god... wow... what an amazing dance. with fantastic dancers. the precision and beauty of it is just incredible.

[@DaChieftain]

@DancerWithTheBadKnee -- same here. I think it's the music as much as the choreography as much as the genius of the performers. Crikey, Sylvie Guillem is magical!

[@alambradodanza]

questo video mi ha commossa perchè è magico....

[@tiaraajackson]

I am incredibly in awe! There is so much grace, simplicity, and innocence in the beginning. ASTOUNDING! Sylvies grace eats this at this piece.

[@AliciaBaldelli]

wow. I can't get enough of this, sylvie has mastered clasical ballet and modern 7:15 is lovely, her playing the violin painfuly

[@giovanna-jennysantagati1585]

Fantastica!!! Persino commovente nella sua perfezione.....

[@chriscarlonemusic]

I wish the Smoke series was on DVD. What a treasure.

[@jfm3dance]

Sylvie and mats ek is magic!!

[@Dancer22312]

[@tedsler]

5:04 just makes me groan by envy every single time And the music is sooooooo good I love Arvo Pärt

[@jekarm]

Her expression on 6:24 is breathtaking! she´s such an artist

[@dottorina46]

Me encanta. Resulta fascinador como se puede ser libre con el movimiento...me hace sentir en otra esfera, como en un mundo sin problemas, como si volviese a ser niño...me ha encantado!

[@zoupkat]

breathtaking and heartbreaking...

[@laylasheleh]

sublime-a language that has no dialogue...

[@leannje]

[@ispiseco]

[@annemarieSR]

[@Morn2moon]

EXCELLENT...what a pleasure to watch. Thank you *X*

[@hirvio68]

Utterly sublime. Typically for Ek, funny and so moving at the same time.

[@And4ea8]

Frumusete pura !!!! Silvia

[@LilyNoelleArt]

@0Lollipop0100 I don't know why smoke, but to me it represents the ephemeral transcience of life, love, death, and everything inbetween ... the weightlessness of time, the wisps of inspiration that form us, the subtle swirling ecstasy of being alive and knowing it can't last.

[@MsBeautifly3]

Very moving and beautiful! -3

[@georgiamagica]

who knew, that someone could be so gifted both in body and expression.... There others too fo course, but its so damn rare...

[@pushdance]

Done to absolute perfection...

[@1chriscarlone]

[@kikcou]

thanks so much for posting this one, isn't it just sublime?

[@KultureShock]

If you found it please let me know.

[@leannje]

i'm sorry. 1th part is für alina, second sarah was 90 years old and third spiegel im spiegel

[@ritoulala]

This is magnificent. Poor and rich, real and abstract, "vulgar" and meaningful. I will stop here. I could not keep my senses away.

[@brigittejoignette4779]

A chacun de comprendre, contemporain, impressionnant.

[@thebeautyseeker]

oh oh oh ohohhhhhhhwow.

Por lo que entiendo esta reviviendo las experiencias que tuvo con su anterior amor con melancolia... Pero wtf

[@viqo32]

una delicia,.....

[@fatovamingus]

This Arvo Part piece is in total OVERKILL. It's way over used in dance. It's easy and emotional. Try John Cage or Bartok then call me.,
