FKA twigs has directed a new short film called Playscape in celebration of the 2022 International Woolmark Prize, which awards achievement in fashion. The film takes place among the works of sculptor Isamu Noguchi at the Noguchi Foundation Museum. It stars twigs as well as a group of dancers. After “He Hu” by Duval Timothy and Rosie Lowe soundtracks the introduction, the bulk of the film shows twigs & co. dancing to the X-Ray Spex classic “Identity.” Watch it all happen below.
“It is an honour to be chosen by the Woolmark Prize to work with such talented designers and to
create my first piece of work with Juliano Nunes, innovator of dance for the Avant Garden
collective,” twigs said.
