Award winning media artist Michele Beck, known for her evocative and poetic combinations of video, performance, and sculptural objects turns her camera toward the recent trends in pole dancing in her new documentary My Erotic Body. Pole dancing, an act we associate with strip clubs and various forms of misogyny, has been reinvented as a women-only activity, which brings together movement and eroticism in an environment totally isolated from men. Beck follows a number of women, herself included, who take pole dancing classes together, learning moves on the pole while co-opting stripper clothing, cheering each other on and consciously or not, exploring their inner sense of sexuality, body, identity, femininity and self- determination.
