"I'm slowly expiring like you"

The disconcerting sounds of a mangled eerie record are heard as the camera encircles the disembodied head of a plaster sculpture. Silence. In a Prada blue leather jacket and heeled python Walter Van Beirendonck shoes, a model speaks up.

"Someone once told me they would crush me like an ant. They're going to need a pretty big finger."

'Viddy Well', shot by Oliver Hadlee Pearch and styled by Dazed fashion editor Elizabeth Fraser-Bell, captures a surreal and haunting tension. The plaster cast faces of models Abel and Frederik, distorted mirrors and an unidentified female nude add extra unnerving dimensions. In this accompanying film the mood is intensified as models clutch their seats and recite curious monotone statements.
