Anomaly & A+, Academy's content and music division, have architected and brokered a breakthrough film for FKA twigs #throughglass.
The film marks the first time FKA twigs has worked with a brand and is the latest installment in Anomaly’s Explorer series for Glass. The series documents creative and pioneering individuals as they experiment with potential uses of the new technology.
Released by FKA Twigs today, the new concept film tilted #throughglass sees her seamlessly emulate the choreography references and inspirations she’s searched for using Glass. Working both as a performer and director, the piece is set to a re-scored version of her songs “Video Girl” and “Glass & Patron.”
FKA twigs, recently nominated for a Barclaycard Mercury Prize award for her debut LP1, is widely tipped to define the future of music. Dazed magazine said “FKA twigs is unlike anything you’ve ever seen or heard before”; “The British avant-pop auteur rewriting the sound of modern music”. Earlier this month Twigs embarked on her European tour and will return to North America on November 7 for her first headline tour.
The two minute film was architected, brokered and creatively directed by Anomaly New York, written and directed by FKA twigs, and produced by A+ // Academy Films and Decon.
