Derelicht presents a captivating video to accompany the Christian Loffler version of Chasing Mirrors which has been developed and produced by a collaboration between AΦE (Esteban Fourmi & Aoi Nakamura), Ben Harries and Oliver Jennings. The video encompasses an installation entitled “Kinbaku” that utilises a Japanese spiritualistic discipline as its primary medium and was premiered at Spill Festival 2014. The video showcases AΦE’s installation which symbolically attempts to unravel the constraints and unseen pressures originally conveyed in the vocal by Jova Radevska, expressed through the ancient art of Kinbaku.

Oliver Jennings comments “The video combines the natural world with strange digital landscapes generated from the environment of the shoot. The idea was to communicate the sense of the performance unfolding within different realms simultaneously; this was achieved by merging time based media gathered from the forest with segments and abstractions of Aoi moving within 3 dimensional space”.
