John Tejada - Shattered (Official Video)
  5:46

This video project was created during the dark winter months, with the pandemic still being very present in everyone’s life. It displays the mood of the exploration of the unknown, desire and shattered hopes.”
For the creation of the video, a digital synthesizer was used that not only creates a sense of distortion of the imagery but also acts as a representation for the nostalgia of past decades.
The video is intended to evoke a kind of dream state. We see a man and a woman who never seem to meet, but one gets the feeling that they can sense each other’s presence. The constantly moving road symbolizes the continuous chase for longing to get to a destination which both of them have no idea where it will lead to. Every other time we see a thistle flower. While the thistle is beautiful to look at, she also acts as a symbol of desolation, pain and annoyance. The high appearance of these flowers foreshadows that things might become uncomfortable. Underlining the discomfort of the dreamer, the shattering glass indicates the force of a final collapse that doesn't promise a happy ending. The Thistle also sets the purple color tone that is used throughout the whole video.
