Arca shares new video + cover story at The FADER revealed

Arca recently announced details of his highly anticipated debut album, Xen (out November 4th onMute), while at the same time debuting brand new track "Thievery." Today, the 24-year-old Venezuelan producer reveals the stunning video that accompanies "Thievery," created by long-time visual collaborator Jesse Kanda. The pair have had a unique creative relationship since first meeting, at age 14, on an online artists community, culminating most recently with works such as theirTRAUMA series, Arca's &&&&& mixtape, and collaborations with FKA twigs (including on her breakout 'Water Me' which Arca produced and Jesse directed the video for). Kanda has also designed all the artwork and accompanying imagery for the Xen album. 

Together the pair have created Xen, the star of the "Thievery" video. While Xen is an album of mercurial forms, fluxing unpredictably from smooth to spiked to sweet, Xen is also a girl whose skin ripples and twists as she dances. Arca is Alejandro Ghersi, who, in turn, is also Xen: a meta-modern self-projection, embodying a side of Arca that had previously been hidden by a producer who's so far remained one of the most intriguing enigmas in recent electronic music.
