Following two experimental instrumental records, Hilary Woods returns on her new LP Night CRIÚ, out Oct 31 via Sacred Bones Records, to song form and most notably, to her voice. Crafting songs centred around it, Night CRIÚ’s intimate ecosystem of seven songs uses layers of vocal harmony and lyrics as ways to re-enter the body, to uproot old scripts and to make the unconscious conscious.
Incorporating her analogue film practice and inspired by unspoken bonds that bind us to another, the video to ‘Endgames’ was made by Woods. Piecing together her own 16mm and super 8 film footage processed by hand in the darkroom, combined with archive footage, home movies, profile photographs by Joshua Wright, and Hilary’s own drawings on celluloid film.
