SYNOPSIS

The video reflects a moment of limbo and escape into a fantastic pink girl dance reality as the two cage elevators ascend to an implausible floor. Shot on location in the Lucrecia building, in the historic center of Sao Paulo, “Variations on Elevators & Pink Girls”  furthers a collaboration between artist Sarah Shamash and dancer / choreographer Toshiko Oiwa.
