︎ Bloom by Pascal Pinon
Directed and edited by Alisa Kalyanova
"Over a wheezy musical backing of creaking keyboards and distant percussion, the sisters sing solemnly about the passing of time ("it felt like forever but in a glimpse was lost") and a kind of unplaced sadness ("my greatest harness is the water down my cheeks"). For the video – directed by photographer Alísa Kalyanova and premiered here – the sisters are beautifully shot in pastel light while layers of neon-hued congealing liquid are super-imposed behind or in front of them."
