Future Islands: Walking Through That Door
Future Islands: Walking Through That Door on Nowness.com
A Fantastical Stop-Motion Vision of Love and Loss
A gilded heroine rises from her slumber and into the arms of a black bear in artist Kymia Nawabi’s new video for Future Islands’ careering track, “Walking Through That Door.” Nawabi completed the line-up of a now-defunct art school band with members of the Baltimore-based, synth-powered trio, Sam Herring, William Cashion and Gerritt Welmers a little over a decade ago, and has since devised the group’s album art. “Kymia creates her own mythology in her work,” says guitar and bass player Cashion. “We try to create our own world with our songs, so we like the idea of our music and her work being connected in some cosmic way.” Nawabi won the second season of US TV show Work of Art: The Next Great Artist and was exhibited solo at The Brooklyn Museum in 2012. Here, she channels old-school luminaries such as Vladislav Starevich, a Russian-born Polish animator who made his name creating stop-motion works during the early 20th century, as well as contemporary favorites Tim Burton, The Brothers Quay and Allison Schulnik. Made entirely using donations from the crowd-sourcing platform Kickstarter, today's premiere took eight months to make. The intensity of emotion that characterizes the film betrays the fact that, above all, this is a rumination on love. “When someone else loves you endlessly and honestly, it allows you to open up in ways that are very real and raw,” says Nawabi. “I feel that Sam is singing of a deep love that he has experienced and I wanted the characters to really show this.”

Final Words
"Final words of the last 500 people executed by lethal injection by the State of Texas as they're strapped to the gurney, cruciform style, defendant and victim families watching from behind a glass wall and separated from each other by a partition wall." Mark S.

Fredericks & Mae
Fredericks & Mae is the art/design team of Jolie Mae Signorile and
