VIDEOS…
⭐ PREMIERE ⭐ | Memory Keepers | No Distractions
The new video from experimental electronic duo Memory Keepers takes a bold stance on the stigma surrounding pole dancing. The video’s star, Zoja Ulesoo, describes it as the ultimate feminist art form. “Sure, it requires grace and sensuality, qualities that have traditionally been relegated to the ‘feminine,’ she says, “But it also calls for brute strength, a tolerance for physical pain, and a whole lot of confidence–traits we perceive as ‘masculine’. Pole pushes the boundaries of what we believe women to be capable of.”
