Thomas Carabasi's work with "Communal Nudes" pleases - yet doesn't make up it's mind. Focusing on the elements that please in construction - and they go FAR - males and females enter an arena. Twister is the game detracts krom the reality of the frames. It's surprising so many sexual characteristics can be hidden but scream for acceptance and involvement. Unrequited exposure. That a game is "responsible" for the carnival is this requiem ~~ annoys. Carabasi's work excites me - normally - I wanted this too - also - very much. I'd rather prefer that I missed the point than say Thomas Calabrasi's work left me wanting more factual or creative clues towards the statement of these pieces. Good work - but not his best.

PS: Twister? No one's smiling. I had fun whenever I've participated nude. Having my face in someone's crotch would only serve to lighten the moment. Wanting to win added pleasure also. Girls in highschool said they'd play with us if we 3 boys got undressed. We were all friends and naked in the lockerroom we'd seen all of each other's equipment - so we did. They got to open up and after locking the door we'd gotten down to business" - the girls were great seeing the outter male organ and the guys were respectful. Sexuality did come into play - but Twister allowed fun to come into it and I missed that point in Thomas's rendition. Hidden, circumspect - a wake it'd have more meaning and power.

How trasportive! Very insightful use of dance, music, drama and sculpture.
