Björk Takes You Inside Her Mouth in the Video for “Mouth Mantra”
Vulnicura is Out Now
Björk has shared a new video for "Mouth Mantra," a track from her album from earlier this year, Vulnicura. Jess Kanda directed the clip, which partly takes place inside the Icelandic singer's own mouth.
Dazed premiered the video, as they have done most Björk things for this album. In a statement to Dazed about the video, she said: "I am so extremely grateful to Jesse to be up for going on this journey. It was brave of him to take it on and I feel spoiled having witnessed him grow, making hi tech mouth models and inventing cameras all to match a little therapeutic song about the throat. His dedication and devotion is overwhelming !!!
I am especially grateful for those sassy dancefloor moments we managed to squeeze in there aswell : true magic !!"
Kanda also commented on the video: "If there's one thing I'd like for people to take away from this video, it's the power of vulnerability. That is what Björk's album Vulnicura is all about to me, and hopefully this video reflects that. It's about having the courage to express yourself and seeing yourself in that mirror. Doing something that scares the shit out of you and sharing it, growing from it, spreading love and courage to others and making the world a warmer place to be and relate to each other."
