Go Go 6: Light Dance

Marilyn Manson’s Screaming Cover Soundtracks a Mirrored World of Private Dancing

Bathed in kaleidoscopic volleys of light, model Tina Mogensen seduces in director Noam Griegst’s erotically charged new short. Inspired by a book he found in a Parisian flea market about the French capital’s shrine to the striptease, Crazy Horse, the Copenhagen-based fashion photographer created a giant mirrored cube in which to capture Mogensen’s scorching routine to goth rocker Marilyn Manson's take on the Screamin' Jay Hawkins classic "I Put a Spell on You." Griegst enlisted lighting designer Andreas Wetterberg to project the luminous colors dancing across the Danish model’s writhing body. Previously shooting for Dazed & Confused, Volt, V and Dansk magazines, Griegst envisioned a pared-down version of a modern gentlemen’s club. “It was about celebrating the woman, life, colors and experimentation,” he explains. “The beauty of it is that you can create your own little world.” The photographer is currently readying a book on the Danish Royal Ballet, compiled from images he took while documenting the troupe’s travels across America and Japan.
