7 Colours

1990, 28 Minutes.

In 7 Colours, choreographers Stephen Page from the Aboriginal and Island Dance Theatre and Victoria Taylor from the Sydney Dance Company come together to create an innovative short dance film.

In a series of seven colourful sequences, using kaleidoscopic lighting effects and fluid body movements, we see how the dancers have worked with the director to create a work of great visual clarity, highly original in composition, character and costume, choreographed with the camera in mind.
