WRENÉ – “METAMORPHOSIS”
A SPILL EXCLUSIVE VIDEO PREMIERE
Canadian electronic music producer and vocalist Wrené challenges the ‘male gaze’ in a newly created audio/visual piece for her single ‘Metamorphosis’. Wrené’s avant-garde video boldly confronts the pervasive oversexualization of women in commercial music, showcasing a keen eye for images of transformation and liberation in her signature style. The metaphor of the butterfly’s emergence from the chrysalis is beautifully rendered in the visuals, while the lyrics herald a new phase of life where change is embraced. As a victim of sexual harassment throughout her life, Wrené not only presents a cathartic celebration of her unique journey and individuality in this video but also offers an empowering visual representation of femininity. It serves as a poignant counter to the base and tasteless commodification of the female form in modern art.
Wrené is a Canadian singer and music producer known for her distinctive sound that transcends the boundaries of genre. With a focus on blending soulful vocals, experimental textures, and pop elements, Wrené continuously challenges the norm and pushes the limits of electronic music.
ARTIST QUOTE
“I’m not here to victimize myself, and I am not seeking sympathy for my negative experiences as a woman. I engage in my art to create a world where my voice and expression matters, and to tend to pain that others have dismissed. Respect and acknowledge women’s pain. We are your mother, your sister, your wife, and your daughter.”
