Dance on Paper

Work in Progress

Judith Kunzlé's Limited Edition Prints feature dancers, seashells, Cook Islands natural history, landscapes and compositions with fruit and veggies.

Each print is hand-signed and numbered. All the prints are high-quality gicleés on canvas, watercolour paper or offset prints with light-fast inks on acid-free paper.

In the Cook Islands, dance is a very important part of the local Polynesian culture.

Judith Kunzlé sketches dancers and troupes at rehearsals and performances to study the body language of various dance forms.

Judith's dance mentor in Rarotonga is Jackie Tuara-Newnham.

In dance studios in Europe, the USA and New Zealand she has observed contemporary dance movements.

Judith studies the different dance forms in the South Pacific in Hawai'i, Tahiti, the Marquesas, Easter Island, Tonga, Samoa, Fiji, Vanuatu, and Papua New Guinea.

Judith paints the lush tropical landscapes Rarotonga and other islands with watercolor.

The Painting Expeditions and Sketchbook Therapy are an ideal opportunity for artists to combine drawing and painting with learning about Polynesian culture and natural heritage.

Judith's texts are without jargon. Most of these articles have been published.

With an illustrated travel log you can share Judith's recent trip to China.

Judith Kunzlé was born in Switzerland and lives since 1986 in Rarotonga, Cook Islands.
