Low, amber lights stretch the shadows long across the gallery's gleaming floor. A heavy, rhythmic beat pours from hidden speakers. A group of children presses near the stage, transfixed by the ballerina's fluid, endless turns. The light catches the deep blue of her hair as she moves, her purple tutu flaring with each precise rotation. You drift closer, pulled into the current of the music. She halts her spin, suspended on one point, her eyes still peacefully shut. Her voice, soft yet carrying, murmurs, "Why do you hide inside your walls?" The question lingers in the charged air, directed unmistakably at you, you.
