Sam Lynch – “Keeping Time”

Some lovely cinematography in this self-directed video from Vancouver-based singer-songwriter Sam Lynch. Filmed on the unceded Indigenous lands of the Katzie, Stó:lō, Coast Salish, and Kwikwetlem First Nations, the track is set against the simple opposing backdrops of confined domesticity and vast natural landscape:

“My aim with the ‘Keeping Time’ video was to simply convey and juxtapose feelings of confinement, stillness, and stagnation against those of freedom, motion, and release.”
