Kaitlyn Aurelia Smith has a gorgeous new video for “The Steady Heart” off her upcoming LP The Mosaic of Transformation due out May 15th via Ghostly International. Discussing the upcoming release, she explains:
“The inspiration for this album came to me as a sudden burst of joy, a mixture of sound that I heard internally and shapes that I saw internally. Each shape represented a word. I created the album artwork by using my body to form these shapes. Together with the album cover and back shapes, they create a poem intended to be shared through images.”
The video for the track is directed by Sean Hellfritsch, and it is an excerpt from the visuals to be used for Smith’s upcoming tour. The shapes she describes, with her ability to enact them through movement, come to life here with stylized nebulas of light playing across the kaleidoscopic images. Smith’s physical mastery is extraordinary, and as a visual poem, she indeed embodies the steady heart referenced in this song’s title.
