Vendredi sur Mer, a French-Swiss artist also known as Charline Mignot, has had a profound impact on the music industry, particularly through her eclectic and striking music videos. Born in Geneva in 1995, Vendredi sur Mer's musical style fuses spoken word poetry with electro-pop melodies, creating an intriguing atmosphere that's mirrored in her visual work. One of her pioneer projects was the video for her single "La Femme à la Peau Bleue," which presents an engaging narrative of a surreal rendezvous between herself and a blue-skinned woman, underscoring the theme of unraveled desires that pervades in her music.
Though Vendredi sur Mer sings in French, her music videos have a universal appeal that transcends language barriers. Her video for "Écoute Chérie," directed by the acclaimed Alice Moitié, is a perfect example of this. The video explores the paradox of loneliness amidst the crowd through a series of party scenes shot in a dreamy, pastel palette. It's like a lively tableau vivant—every scene a perfectly calibrated orchestration of color, light, and movement. In a comically peculiar detail, you can often spot a plastic crocodile prop making casual cameos in her videos. The crocodile, she says, symbolizes a lurking fear. Yet, she manages to incorporate it so seamlessly into the narratives that it becomes just another eccentric character sharing her creative universe.
