Synopsis
The visuals of “VOICES” are inspired by the artist’s heritage: the Mapuche indigenous tribe in Chile, known as the People Of The Earth.
In Mapuche mythology, Antu represents the Sun (pictured through the golden palette), as well as light, wisdom, and spirit, and is married to Kueyen, a Wangulén spirit that represents the moon, (which we brought to life through the silver set up). In this video, the singer appears as both the Sun & the Moon as a visual representation of light and darkness, of femininity and masculinity. The duality of our own spirituality and our internal voices.
