Karma She

Karma She fuses together elements of grime, rap and witch house, and a performance style that manages to be both incredibly sensual and jarringly over-the-top, the very premise of Karma She – a music and performance endeavor led by Israeli artist Carmel Michaeli – is based on evading any sort of easy definition. The video release of More Ecstasy, was shot in a 19th century Jerusalem school building, the film provides a refreshingly psychedelic and campy take on Judaism, constructing a magical alternate-reality by radically appropriating traditional Jewish symbology. Its subjects, dressed in yarmulkes and school uniforms, drink orange soda and dance themselves into possessive trances as their leader, a horned and seemingly possessed Karma She, guides them on a path towards More Ecstasy.
