Agnes Locsin and Biag Gaongen, associate artistic director of Locsin Dance Workshop, pose by Agnes’ split jump photo. —CONTRIBUTED PHOTOS
In a stunning photograph, a young Agnes Locsin executes a tour jeté. After a spin in the air, her extended legs create a perfect split, and her lips are well-placed, while her arms gracefully trace the lines of classical ballet.
That photo is from Locsin’s retrospective “Dance is My Life” at the Davao Museum of History and Ethnography. Though not widely publicized, the exhibition is a significant tribute to the National Artist for Dance and aligns with the museum’s series honoring other Davao-born National Artists, including Ang Kiu Kok.
