Passage

The International Woolmark Prize and Saint Heron Agency present ‘Passage’ – a motion portraiture and celebration of the six 2021 International Woolmark Prize finalists. Created and written by Solange Knowles for Saint Heron Agency, and directed by McArthur Award-winning director Wu Tsang, the work draws from the masterful styling of Ib Kamara and an original score by Standing on The Corner. Starring Dionne Warwick, Dominique Jackson, SahBabii, Joi and KeiyaA, “Passage” is a deeply thoughtful exploration of sustainability, and the stages of creation: contemplation, courage, optimism, vulnerability, discipline and strength. Through 6 acts of concentrated motion between stage, nature and surrealism, the film echoes themes of conjuring and ceremonious celebrations, and creates abstraction to embody the various expressions of each designer.
