"No Dancing" Man (Tubemen Forest)
Yok and Sheryo

Artist Statement:

 

A response to a commentary titled "Is Dancing an Evil?" found in the Malaya tribune from Oct 30, 1929. 

An unhappy gentleman expressed his worrying concern about dancing when he saw an ad for Dance Lessons in the papers.

"There is no pleasure or joy!",  "Is this not Injurious to health?" "I should obtain on benefit at all should i become a dancer!" were some of his arguments.

In response to his commentary, i present to you the very ironic "No Dancing" tubemen,  because sometimes all you have to do is DANCE, even if you don't want to, or know how to. Dancing is good for the soul.
