A woman lies waist-up on the ground, her hair tied in a side ponytail. She seems to be looking at something on the ground.
Four people hold the same pose as if in mid-run. They raise their right arm, elbow bent 90 degrees, and their right leg lunges forward. All except one appear to be wearing exercise clothes. The one outlier wears a hat with two large feathers attached, and a brown vest over a white button-up, as well as knee-high heeled boots. 

Sexy, embarrassing, graceful, heavy, energized, aching, youthful, and ageing: our body is our closest and yet perhaps least understood companion. What stories do today's bodies tell? And are we able to listen?
