The dark side of the art was captured by the artist Javier Perez thought of a slightly shocking, yet accurate way to capture the dark side of the art. Contemporary art is expressive by filming ballerina Amelie Segarra dance en pointe while wearing massive kitchen knives.
Titled En Puntas (‘On Points’), the video means the dancing technique, when ballerinas dance on their tip toes. Amelie is shot while dancing on a grand piano, cursing at the pain as the knife blades repeatedly stab the instrument.
The lighting ambiance is smooth as the piano ressembles a painful instrument to be forever remembered.
