How did Myron capture movement in his statues?
I achieved this through intense observation and a deep understanding of anatomy. I watched athletes and dancers, dissecting their movements mentally and physically. My process involved studying the subtle shifts in weight, the tensing of muscles, the trajectory of limbs. Then, in my workshop, I would translate this kinetic knowledge into stone or bronze, seeking that precise instant of maximum potential, the fulcrum of action, before the outcome is determined.
