Holysseus Fly 'Bloom' by Jack Lilley
Rob Ulitski - 12th July 2023
Jack Lilley explores rebirth in this affecting promo for Bristol-based vocalist, pianist, songwriter and painter Holysseus Fly.
The video sees the artist - real name Holly - rise up from a suffocating, cocoon-like covering to experience freedom on her own terms. Like a caterpillar turned butterfly, Holly stands tall with her eyes set firmly on the future, and the promise of more vibrant, exciting experiences to come.
"Cancer and self-empowerment are themes that are not given enough space, and Holysseus Fly is creating her own narrative about recovery," says Jack Lilley.
"Reclaiming and loving her new body after her double mastectomy surgery for breast cancer, this is an emotional video, brimming with self-determination."
