LYAM 'The Art Of Letting Go!' by Claryn Chong

Rob Ulitski - 19th Sept 2024

Following Promonews' coverage of 2 HOT 4 THIS back in July, Claryn Chong now presents the entire three-part film for LYAM's album release. 

The film follows LYAM through different emotional wavelengths as he battles with the feelings of being stuck - in this case literally, in a human-sized cage - before finally choosing to let go. We deal with feelings of arrogance in 2 HOT 4 THIS, despair in MERRY GO ROUND, and finally acceptance in METROPOLIS, where he finally lets himself turn into a monster if that means he can break free.

It's an excellent concept that makes the most of the limited location, creatively experimenting with camera techniques and lingering, intimate shots of the artist. Building in intensity, the concept builds to a frantic climax, and is absorbing from start to finish.
