Polia & Blastema

Synopsis : With Polia and Blastema, Merhige completes his epic trinity. In the psychedelic tradition of 2001 – A Space Odyssey and Altered States, he draws on sci-fi and opera to create a wordless creation myth, full of desolate hellscapes, materials both organic and inorganic, as well as primal scenes of a universe coming into being. Featuring the visual imagination of David Wexler, mastermind behind the live performances of Flying Lotus, The Weeknd, and The Glitch Mob, as well as music by visual artist and composer Gavin Gamboa, Polia and Blastema is an audio-visual tour de force like no other.
