A celebration of the grace and extraordinary beauty of the human body: in flight, in repose and, at times, bared back to its raw and most basic essentials.
Greg Barrett's superb photography captures the energy, the drama and the dangerous balance between physical capability and artistic expression. "Tutu" presents the entire company of The Australian Ballet, unbound by the rigours and restraint of formal performance and choreography, to record a collaboration such as has never been seen in the history of Australian dance.
Frozen in the fraction of a second that is the photographic image is the whole miraculous nature of dance, pushed to its limit and, in many cases, to the limits of the dancers' own capabilities.
