Lex Amor shares short film, FORWARD

North London-based artist Lex Amor has unveiled the new short film, FORWARD, which is inspired by her FORWARD EVER project.

Created in collaboration with a trio of directors – Javon Davis, Caleb Femi and Charlie Rees – FORWARD strives to begin "a collective conversation about perception, a question about certainty, an investigation into the layers of reality and the human experience," as Lex Amor puts it in a statement. "FORWARD exists in a space between now and next - where imagination meets reality, where new worlds become solid, where possibilities find their feet."

"We intended for this film to be both a statement and a question; an invitation to look again, to see differently, to recognise that everything - even what feels most fixed and certain - is always in motion, always moving - for you - forward," she continues.

Speaking on the project, which was released last year, Lex offers: "For me, FORWARD EVER is a statement of intent - a reminder to persevere and navigate through the haze of modern life - an offering of a perspective. It’s about finding beauty where you stand and having faith in the timing of your journey - seeing the thorn as you see the rose. The album is born out of a lifetime of introspection, capturing the movement of a mind on this earth - a time stamp, a reminder that I was here - London, 2024: thinking and hoping, navigating - alongside everybody else."

FORWARD is out now.
