Watch Jenny Hval’s “The Great Undressing” Video:
Jenny Hval has a new video for her track “The Great Undressing“, off her critically lauded Blood Bitch LP out now on Sacred Bones. Directed by Marie Kristiansen, and starring Marte Germaine Christensen, the video will remind you of that nightmare where you find yourself naked in public. Ignoring the performative ritual of “getting dressed”, the visuals follow Christensen as she carries on her daily activities in the nude. Whether an act of protest or an attempt to appear in her most authentic form, our heroine seems to go about town invisibly, while the clothed world carries on around her without notice. Following the complex thematics of Hval’s Blood Bitch, these visuals explore issues around female identity and intimacy in challenging and thought-provoking ways.
