Zzzahara 'Ghosts' by Hannah Bon

Rob Ulitski - 18th Oct 2024

Hannah Bon places Zzzahara into a increasingly eery 3D-animated version of reality in an exploration of the impact of emotional turmoil.

In the video for Ghosts, the 3D version of the singer-songwriter sits in a sparsely furnished bedroom, accompanied by books and cigarettes, confined to exist with her depression and heartbreak. As time passes, the room transforms, mirroring inner chaos, and the ghosts of a past relationship appears.

The animation, by Hilmy Hendrakusuma, mines videogame nostalgia, achieves an arresting reproduction of the artist's likeness and slips deeper into Uncanny Valley territory with the creepy interaction of the characters.

Then Hannah Bon adds a hopeful note to her modern ghost story, leaving Zzzahara looking for a way to escape their emotional pain.
