Ballet Dancer Sergei Polunin in Church

What happens after you mix the abilities of Russia's ballet dangerous boy Sergei Polunin, Irish gospel notability Hozier and photography pop wizard David LaChapelle? Apparently, a full heap of angst, sexy, beautiful dancing ensues.

 

LaChapelle directed the new visual interpretation of the Grammy-nominated hit, starring British Royal Ballet vet Polunin performing choreography by Jade Hale-Christofi. The emotive dancer, donning only nude tights with heavy tattoos illuminated empty space. The white room clashes with the dark energy of the bluesy song, making Polunin's stunning dance moves resemble some kind of spiritual possession.
