"Ndaya as the Dancing Rose" portrays a captivating scene featuring a ballerina frozen in an extended pose, her head transformed into a delicate rose. Ilunga's fascination lies in the perception of beauty attributed to both ballerinas and roses. While admired for their elegance, these entities undergo contrasting experiences: ballerinas endure rigorous training and push their bodies to extraordinary limits, while roses are often severed from their bushes and displayed. These iconic symbols of beauty, purity, and perfection require sacrifice to embody such qualities. The artwork serves as a contemplative exploration of the paradoxical nature of beauty, highlighting the profound dedication and sacrifice that underlies its perceived allure.
