Square Dancing 12
In this image a couple perform a kind of promenade during a square dance.
Ruohomaa focusses on how the participants' interplay reflects process of learning and the sometimes awkward and unfamiliar proximity of neighbors and strangers. In this improvised dance hall Kosti finds his preferred subject matter: the folkways of ordinary people at work and as here, at play.
