In the video "Painted" performed by Dorotea Saykaly, we can see that in the beginning there is a very clear shot of how the building looks like, how big it is, and what its current condition is. Saykaly's movement seems to move at different paces depending on how fast the music is. She starts slow and delicate at the beginning of the video, as the video goes further on she starts moving at a different speed, showing us different places of the building. She also isn't afraid of touching the decaying walls, or the dusty floors with her hands as she dances. I think this piece is about building and nature. Near the end of the video we see her dancing slowly again, and she starts to lay down on the floor as if she is tired and weak, the dancer could represent the building. Nature plays a part in this as well because the video also shows us mini clips of the outside of the building and its surroundings. There are mostly trees and grass, covering the windows or the roof. As the building is dying, nature is taking over it.
I hope this little summary helped you. Also sorry if its very long.
