- VICIOUS CYCLE -

Being an artist sometimes feels like we’re always racing to try and keep up or stay in the loop. The pressure of trying to find work or hoping for the next big thing around the corner is an everyday challenge for us; especially during a pandemic.  Feels like were always in this constant battle to stay relevant and stay on top of the game.

The video ultimately reflects the rat race. The race of putting on a smile starting your day off confidently, maybe you just got hired for a gig and you’re feeling amazing or you just graduated with honours etc... But then life happens. Along our path we also encounter the days were we get hit by an obstacle. It might take us a few steps back but we keep walking forward because it’s our passion and purpose and maybe we’re all just a tad insane. Through the obstacles were given we persevere we keep pushing and pushing and pushing further and sometimes we do get tired and break past our limits. This takes us to our favourite part: the fall. We cry, we get mad, we want to just throw everything out the window but just when we’re about to give up, we get some amazing news we were hoping for and the vicious cycle begins again.

- STEMME 2 SKY -

A meshing of growth and destruction. Cuttings of a fever dream.
She detangles the dead roots. Waters her body. Mists her mind.
Sparks from the seed, to the stem, the tunnel, the tower, and then to the sky.
