Loosely, based on his own experience growing up with an abusive stepfather in a small, racist Texas town, the clip for "Hidden" is an arresting visual collision of multiple animation styles.Flashbacks to traumatic memories, drawn in pen and grayscale watercolors, establish an uneasiness and tension and provide a simple, powerful backstory for the video's protagonist. Director Martyna Koleniec masterfully creates this enchanting world of stop-motion filming with the help of cinematographer Ondřej Nedvěd.
