Bogotá, Colombia. Acrylic nails. A pink world. The faint sound of bolero drifts through a nail salon.

Más Glow is a dance film which speaks to the preconceived notions of beauty, the rules imposed on the female body and the power in taking up space. As gestures unravel inside a nail salon and dance begins to shift towards monstruous movement, four women break the rules of how they are expected to behave.

This film is part of The Floor is Yours commission series and premiered at Dance Digital film festival. After a public call out in 2025, three artists were selected to create a short dance film which explores how movement can appear in everyday life of unexpected places.
