VIDEOAGRAPHY BY SAMSON BINUTU CREATIVE DIRECTION BY AYANA ZAIRE COTTON

Do The Dance (2017) is an visual essay exploring the performative nature of labor in a capitalist context. An editorial perspective on the thin line we walk (dance) when accessing and committing to various means of survival. You bend, you stretch, you hop, you jump, you skip, you break, you broke so you dance.
