OXALIS
Reframing the art of pole dancing through its nuanced strength and the instinctive dialogue between bodies.
“Finding strength and poetry in movement, pole dancing is an exploration of shape formation, centred by the grounding structure that delivers its momentum. Sensual in its fluidity, yet sexualized only through the antiquated associations attached to it, short film Oxalis looks to redefine the art of pole dance, and question the perspective that shapes its connotations.”
