REVIEW | BMA MAGAZINE

  • Publication: BMA Magazine
  • Date: 22 July 2020

“Utilising hand-drawn illustrations and digital painting, Ayla’s flitting array of skilfully rendered faces, figures, features, and other assorted atrophying forms is compelling, creating a luring juxtaposition to the leaden aspects of the soundtrack… the music and the video are efficiently merged, an artistic symbiosis is reached, this exchange embedding resonance to each creative discipline. This is what one expects of a music video: surprise, ambiguous beauty and a kind of contaminated sensuality all of which amounts to uniform engagement. The SFL video is quite a trip, worthy of taking, as unsettling as it is disturbingly alluring.”
