One of the masked women imitates the sounds she hears and the ubiquitous tune, as she sways and runs her hand through her hair.A rutting mare, a slender block of ice, warm for others but not for herself, she seems to be split in two: fire from the waist down, straight lines above.Growing more sensual by the minute, more labile and smiling, her mask redder, flame is her nest, the flash of her eyes stony gray.
