I AM MOTHERLAND
For the 'I Am Motherland' film by Kalkidan Hoex presented at the 2021 Fashion Clash festival, Dylan Eno got the opportunity to design the music.
​
The film explores the mixed identities experienced by Hoex “as an Ethiopian born in the Netherlands. It depicts a surreal third world born from the overlap of these two worlds. My creations express this third world, bridging cultures through imagery.
This in-between space helps me understand my reality and find a sense of belonging. 'I AM MOTHERLAND' is a reflection of how I ground myself, finding my 'Motherland' within, deeply rooted in representation and symbolism.”
The soundtrack by Eno combines traditional Amharic instruments with digital soundscape elements.
