Bjork has released the 10 minute video short for her track “Black Lake” taken from her current album Vulnicura and it is a visually stark and muted piece from the 49 year old Singer-songwriter composer and actress.
björk: black lake taken from the album vulnicura.
shot on location in iceland by award-winning director andrew thomas huang, the ten minute long film for ‘black lake’ was commissioned by the museum of modern art, new york and debuted there earlier this year.
the film includes motifs from the icelandic landscape—caves, ravines, lava, and moss fields—and reflects ideas of pain, perishing, and rebirth. ‘black lake’ was realized in collaboration with the 3-d design firm autodesk, who worked along with david benjamin and the living on the installation at moma. ‘black lake’ was produced by andrew thomas huang’s uk based music video production company colonel blimp.
