Pass Back Through, 2023
Video, music, mask and costume making, special effects. 4:07

Pass Back Through, from the album Come Back to Me, but Lightly, is a song which compares natural cycles and the reflectivity of sunlight and the moon with processes of internal struggle. It talks about how internal struggles can repeat again and again, and how healing moves in cycles. In the video, I designed a Sun and a Moon character, who haunt the protagonist by making them “pass through” a hoop again and again, first in an imagined world, and then following them into their daily life. I wrote and produced the video, as well as making props and costumes. Elements from this video were also used in live performance. Click image to see video
