Bipolar Skin is about what it is to be a human being, about the difference of expressing when you are alone and when you are with others, the double personality that we have and which makes us change from an state of mind to another very quick.
Even having our natural skin colour sometimes we mix it with the colour of others trying to express that everything is normal but at the end we all have and conserve our unique essence.

    I usually get so bored watching dances that have music that doesn't have words, but with this one... WOW. I was held in the whole time. I saw 8 minutes and then the non lyrical music and thought I was going to end up clicking out of the video, but the choreography, the dancers, the lighting... it just all came together so, so well and I almost cried so many times. Every single person that had a part in making this dance are INCREDIBLY talented. Just wow. Thank you so much for this.
  • The originality of their moves, but also their ability to pull it off so smoothly. I'm at a loss for words. Was not expecting this. I'd love to have Perez & Castillo on my channel! - The Acoustic Rabbit Hole

    Being bipolar and finding this dance is amazing. The disorder is so accurately portrayed.

    I've watched this so many times and I still think it is one of the most beautiful pieces I have ever seen.

    A very moving piece... This is what we call art!
  • The transitions are what makes works of art great. The transitions in this piece told truths that words can not express. Wonderful
  • This is incredible. It really captivated me and helped me see into the mind of someone with bipolar. So beautifully done.

    This is probably one of the most beautiful pieces I've ever seen.

    If I didn’t read the title of the video I wouldn’t have understood the beginning or the end (could’ve have guessed, but probably would’ve been wrong) but the middle (& the end since I knew what it was about) was STUNNING!!! I truly do not think that I have ever watched a routine as beautifully raw, tragic & amazing as this piece!! Such outstanding talent. You made me fall in love with dance again. Thank you!!! ❤
