Let's start from the premise that art is interpreted by the person who sees it, according to beliefs and lived experiences, that's why each person sees different things in art and this is more than art.
Maybe the director of the video, of the theatrical part and Sia wanted to expose something, but people will interpret it according to their mind and what they have lived.
I see a girl, or a strong woman who faces what happens to her, it can be a situation of violence, she confronts it and in the struggle her mind is stronger. But she realises that the man is what he could have been and not something else, she wants to help him to get out of the cage... the bars are mental, in reality he can get out but he thinks he cannot. She wants to help him because she was able to get out of mental barriers that limited her... .... he is not.
Now I read what I wrote... and I described myself. It's a great video for people to reflect on themselves. I knew it and had already analysed it at the time, as I mentioned to you. Sia does amazing things, I love it! Very good review Oscar!
Partamos de la base que el arte es interpretado por quien lo ve, de acuerdo a creencias y experiencias vividas, por eso cada persona ve cosas distintas en el arte y esto es más que arte.
Quizá el dierctor del video, de la parte teatral y Sia quisieron exponer algo, pero la gente interpretara de acuerdo a su mente y lo que haya vivido.
Veo una niña, o una mujer fuerte que hace frente a lo que le pasa, puede ser una situación de violencia, se enfrenta y en la lucha su mente es mas fuerte. Pero se da cuenta que el hombre es lo que pudo ser y no otra cosa, quiere ayudarlo a salir de la jaula... los barrotes son mentales, en realidad puede salir pero él cree que no. Ella quiere ayudarlo porque pudo salir de barreras mentales que la limitaban.... él no.
Ahora leo lo que escribí... y me describí a mi misma. Es un excelente video para que la gente pueda reflejarse. Lo conocía y ya lo había analizado en su momento, tal cual te lo mencioné. Sia hace cosas espectaculares, me encanta!! Muy buena reseña Oscar!
a classic is a classic, I really liked your interpretation which is very psychological like ivanaX's, it was a very unfairly hit video in its time but for me it is what you mention, a work of Art in all its expression and to see the amount of views reflects how much has come not only as a song, but as a video in sequence of choreographic image this story to people and that will never be taken away from SIA 😎
La verdad es fantástico! Y lo seguirá siendo, siempre habrá gente que hable, bien o mal, pero siempre habrá... de un video o de cualquier cosa... que hablen!
