I wanted to capture the collective state of limbo and simultaneous upheaval that we were all experiencing at the time, the dichotomy of the 'No dough' state of being. The raw, unfiltered, escapist in-between before the wave of total emotional, economic, and industrial collapse. The sounds and the visuals were intended to create this energetic fantasy that we can all tap into, and borrow from. Instead of a literal cityscape with buildings, I wanted to use these masked figures as towering elements representing the self judgement as well as societal judgement we mindlessly imposed on ourselves in the midst of this silent chaos.
The music is culturally charged, energising and unapologetic so I wanted to make sure the colours and lighting speak that language visually.
