Since the release of her mixtape CAPRISONGS, the follow-up to 2019's MAGDALENE, FKA twigs has kept busy. Last week she popped up on Yung Lean's single "Bliss" off his new album Stardust, and today she's shared the short film PLAYSCAPE that features a troupe of dancers artfully prancing to "He Hu" by Duval Timothy and Rosie Lowe, followed by X-Ray Spex's "Identity."

PLAYSCAPE was created to "[celebrate] the art of play and this year’s International Woolmark Prize finalists," which honors "outstanding fashion talents from across the [globe] who showcase the beauty and versatility of Australian Merino wool." The film, featuring creative direction by Zak Group and choreography by Juliano Nunes, showcases the work of finalists Ahluwalia, EGONLAB, Jordan Dalah, MMUSOMAXWELL, Peter Do, RUI, and Saul Nash. This year's contest was inspired by sculptor Isamu Noguchi, who made innovative and experimental playgrounds called playscapes, hence the film's title.
