For his portrait, LaRance elected to squat rather than to sit quietly on a stool. The dancer appears ready to spring into motion, but his gaze is direct and arresting. Equipped with a game console, earphones, and a Japanese graphic novel, he has slung his dance hoop across his body to signal that he is both a traditional dancer and a fan of popular culture; he resists easy categorization.
