Melt, by Noémie Lafrance, at the Salt Pile
Seven dancers perched on a wall and wrapped in sculptural beeswax and lanolin costumes are slowly melting away, progressing in euphoria and exhaustion as if approaching the sun, melting until their souls escape their ephemeral bodies and disintegrate into light (Sens Production).
A site-specific dance installation by Noémie Lafrance in Lower Manhattan at the Salt Pile (Pike Slip @ South Street) until September 12. There are two reviews, not positive, in NY Times and Wall Street Journal.

I actually loved the idea, and the performance in the fragment that could be seen in the video clip - though it was from the shorter and smaller original version back in 2003.

You are right: the video was from the smaller version. I decided to use it because a second available video is much, much shorter.
Thank you for your comment!
