Pole Dancing for 2 hours and 22 minutes

 Durational performance where I pole danced until body exhaustion.

The video of the performance was then displayed on a plasma screen at the Angel Row Gallery in Nottingham.

 

 

Pole Dancing for 2 hours and 22 minutes

 

 

For 2 hours and 22 minutes

I danced around 

Without stopping.

 

Although everything is turning around

my head feels dizzy

my body sways.

I maintain the rhythm,

grab it firmly

and I swing. 

 

There is nothing else but me and it

I listen to my body and its responses to verticality

 

and I swing,

swing in a fury

where I see the world dancing

 

 

head spinning

never stop or you crash

head spinning around

the world is dancing

never really felt it this way before

 

my head just knows : never stop

 

It starts getting hot,

lights on me 

and the world’s dancing

while my body is smashing open

my insides outside

 

and the world is dancing

 

it’s hard to breathe

 

hard to stand

 

but I maintain myself until I release the verticality

and smash to the ground

the last release

the last hot breathe…
