The name Varnish la Piscine might not be a household entity, but for those immersed in the captivating world of music videos, he is nothing short of a creative genius. A French director known for his consistently innovative and thought-provoking work, la Piscine has left an indelible mark on contemporary video making. His groundbreaking approach has profoundly shaped the industry, and his unique style is now a distinctively recognisable attribute in the music and filmmaking world.
Varnish has an uncanny ability to blend raw, human emotion with bold, visually striking imagery in his videos. Take for instance, the music video for FKA twigs' "Cellophane" - Varnish's interpretation is a surreal, emotionally charged journey that's as eerie as it is enchanting. Another perfect example would be his work on Lomepal’s “Trop Beau”, where ethereal lighting meets the gruesome reality of heartbreak in a choreography of delicate brutality. And who could forget the capers of the restless ape in Metronomy's "The Look" video? Yes, that lovable monkey actually learned to play the drums just for the shoot. All these examples offer a glimpse into Varnish’s consistently fresh and imaginative approach to music video creation.
