Showcasing eight large scale black chalk drawings depicting two females figures embroiled in a lively brawl, Nina Fowler's dynamic show It's Just My Funny Way of Dancing is set to debut this month at 18 Hewett Street, London. The images capture split second stills from the 1939 film Destry Rides Again, featuring the enamoring Marlene Dietrich. Concurrently portraying great movement with immaculate stillness, the pieces feature intricate detail and illustrate Fowler’s remarkable draftsmanship skills. 

Fowler's work often harks back to the enchanting world of the silver screen, capturing seductive screen icons and scenes of style and glamour of days gone by. The scale and detailing of the work results in striking high impact images that pay homage to these enigmatic characters. Just My Funny Way of Dancing opens Friday 15th March, 2013.
