Imagine if you're walking in the wilderness and find an abandoned building and when you look through a window you see this woman in black just dancing by herself. I would tip toe the hell out of there.

Although I observed this was a premonition caste 10 years ago, it perfectly captures much of the intensity of the chaos of our unknown and yet demanding faith in the now and new of our present world. Fascinating, huh?
How the trees are crowded at the dusty windows to watch this beautiful human communicating with art in dance.
She is SO good. Just completely evocative in her expression. Creepy yet compelling. Liminal. Well done.
she is interpreting feeling of a bird in a prison......nice choreography....

I like your comment. I wasn't sure what to make of the video. But, I liked it.
I did not realize this was about urban decay and how nature takes over afterward. I thought it was about some kind of emotional pain, especially when the pieces of paint fall on her. She looks like she's given up at the end. Beautiful!

This was very moving. The paint chips worked well. The location, dancer, it's all gorgeous. I overlayed the dance with Verve's Bittersweet Symphony, and it gave the song a new feel. Plus, I love crows and ravens. I was thinking about it before the shot of the bird came up. The choreography and clothing did a really good job conveying it in a way that was accessible but not too overt. Well done and thank you for sharing your work. 💚💜
This video is absolutely stunning, she conveyed the message well in her dance.
Her control gives me chills, I could feel it. It is so powerful! Amazing job done by everyone.. Please keep them coming.
This was incredible, strange, breathtaking, thought provoking, weird, raw, and just downright awesome.

There's an eerie alluring bleak beauty to this dance; really expressive. Very well choreographed and danced
1:11 that crow perfectly captured my reaction to this
Music, choreography, location, wardrobe, and so much more...this is amazing work. Beautiful.
As both a dancer and choreographer myself this piece has definitely inspired me. I loved how the dancer used her settings and interacted with them, and also how the choreographer used those interactions throughout the piece to help grasp a better understanding and appreciation for the piece. All in all, I say it's beautifully constructed. Well done.
Wow! What an incredible piece of choreography, wonderfully danced & beautifully filmed. Well done to all involved.
Wow, everything about this is beautiful! I can't appreciate the dance as much as I can appreciate the lighting, composition and colour grading, because that's more my world, but everything is on point in this video. Very impressive
Absolutely stunning! The emotion, the flow of the moves the connection the dancer had with the choreography and with the audience! I love that scenery btw and that incredibly beautiful dress.
Absolutely mesmerizing!
Beautiful music, dance, imagery. This is absolute ART.
Thank you for this beautiful work.The dance is the revolution.

I don't know about this specific location, but in my experience in production these types of locations are generally old warehouses in places likes trainyards that see little to no use, but are still owned (usually by a single person or as an asset by a much larger organization, not usually anything in between). It can be pretty difficult to make contact with the owner to get permission to shoot here, but often times they are happy to make a bit of money off a building they are not making any profit from. Pretty damn difficult to just sneak in shoot though, they are usually locked up tight to prevent vandalism, and trying to go unnoticed as a film crew is pretty much impossible.

wow. I loved this. Moving. She has amazing control.
Freedom to Express through movement...priceless.
I don't usually go for modern dance because I tend to quickly lose focus and attention on it, but this choreography and dancing, combined with the music, was so interesting and satisfying in some way as to keep my eye glued and not want to miss a moment; I am hereby moved.
This is the real "Black Swan"! Fantastic!
Holy cow!!! So freaking beautiful and to the point… That is where arts living! Amazing……

Este solo de danza contemporánea establece una conexión intima entre la bailarina Dorothy Saykaly, la naturaleza y las ruinas del espacio donde acontece. El pájaro, los árboles, el viento, el pastizal es un correlato del movimiento permitiendo sacar la acción de la bailarina del mero virtuosismo y colocarla en el alma del drama humano. Es una bella narrativa fílmica asociada a la danza contemporánea.
Honestly this reminds me a lot of a Ma Kali dance, dark yet beautiful!
Music, idea, choreographie, location using, camera- very good ! Bravo !
Magnificent! She really tells the building's story.

Very nice job. Everything is in harmony, love the story the performance, the hidden messages and the overall emotion it gives. Keep it up
This is incredible! 💗 Her movements are like the bird... it is stunning... the frequent flashes between human and bird reminds me of The Crow - almost supernatural and a little terrifying?! Great directing and dancing!
how exquisite! lovely work! wonderful production and performance!
I would love to watch this in reverse mode, but original soundtrack. Awesome beautiful and strong!!! Thanks for sharing!

For me this is the most penetrating, raw choreography ever. Totally feeling the raven eve down to her style of black dress and every body movement. And the background music is spot-on. I would love to perform that dance. The crow is so pre- historic. Really great. Thanks for sharing with us all.🦅
