About this work

You see two dancers in mid-leap, their bodies stretched into long, wavy lines. Their costumes look like they’re melting—soft blues and pinks blur together. This was a costume sketch for a ballet called *Pas de Deux*. The dancers never actually wore these designs on stage. Tchelitchew drew them this way to show movement, not just fabric. If you like how the figures seem to flow, check out more works at The Museum of Modern Art.
