Björk – “Family” Moving Album Cover

Last week, Björk premiered the first video to accompany her devastating new album Vulnicura. The clip for "Lionsong" featured the Icelandic artist performing in a costume that closely resembles a psychedelic dandelion. This new Andrew Thomas Huang-directed visual for "Family" has been labeled a "moving album cover," and FACT reports that a frame from this work became the jaw-dropping Vulnicura artwork. The work begins with Björk bent over backwards against a boulder, her chest ripped open. As the gaping wound bleeds pastel pink, it quickly begins to bloom small bits of thread, eventually sewing Björk's body and soul back together. Watch below.
