Private Project

BEING, India Czajkowska & Kuba Lasocki

Album Borderline. Being on the border, between today and the past, reality and dreams, life and death. Between the escape and being together. The main idea of visions of the clip reveals loneliness, waiting for somebody who passed away. And it's closely connected with the meaning of the whole album, "Borderline", that is an epitaph for young gutarist Kuba Lasocki. He is not showed in the video. The only presence of him is an empty chair in the nacked field. And his footprint on the ground. The woman in the clip is acompanied by four elements: earth, fire, air and water, interwined, to tell the story of various emotions she passed through after his death. In her own imagination she's just a witch-widow taking care of the fire that is slowly burning out...
