Selection
Used - Wonderful Sun Music Video
Germany 2025
Duration: 03:00
Directed: Julia Schneider, Chantale Eglin
Dialogue Language: English
Wonderful Sun — an homage to summer and the feeling of being carried by a sunlit dream. In a collage world, the music leads a dreamlike journey where surreal creatures and plants bloom together in harmony. Commissioned in early 2025, the piece uses digital collages - guided by rhythm, light, and color - to stage an immersive walk through a garden that gradually lets go of realism. With each verse, flora and fauna lean into the surreal as daylight fractures into saturated patterns. The narrative remains non-literal: motion, texture, and color build a hypnotic, welcoming world that suggests harmony—and the soft warmth of lying in the sun, lost in a daydream.
