PASSION

2020-2021 · Music Video + Live A/V · 16mm transfered to digital

Passion is a three movement work by Vessel for strings, voice and electronics, inspired by the writing of Clarise Lispector.

This film, by Pedro Maia, follows the path of a new life-form, a pilgrim on its journey to be free from the darkness. This experimental short film, translates Vessel’s composition into a visual journey between light and shadow, exploring the space between joy and pain, stability and instability and the idea of constant transformation. Is dissolution the way to redemption?
