Ray BLK 'Courage' by Relta

Rob Ulitski - 26th July 2024

Relta directs a stirring one-take performance for Ray BLK. 

The video for Courage captures a performance that articulates the artist's experiences with an abusive ex-partner.

Inside an intimate theatre setting, the performance moves to reveal an abstract, minimalist set, where Ray and a male character interact and recreate the fraught dynamic she references in the lyrics, before returning to the first space after a climactic confrontation. 

It's a tight, focussed video that is full of inspired visual elements, and perfectly represents the emotional journey of the track.
