That's one of the reasons I love art, though: people can see different things in the same piece, and there are many valid ways to interpret what you see.

Sacred dancers.

Maybe! I like to imagine them as shrine maidens who perform sacred dances for the gods, and convey divine oracles to their communities. Kind of like the miko in Japan.
