“A woman in control of her own narrative, one that is about trauma,” Cleo says of her new song

After launching a web series on Instagram, and a book about toxic relationships, the artist now presents a song to finalize the project and kick off his career album

Cleo released this Wednesday, the 16th, the song with the video clip Everyone I’ve ever loved has made me cry🇧🇷 The production closes the project which already has a book and a webseries focused on the same theme: toxic relationships. The single is also part of the artist’s first album, which will be released in the coming months.

“The story of the clip is how I’ve always felt, mostly from what I went through with my family in the ’90s, which was very hard, very painful, very cruel. And I felt like I was being judged and used for certain purposes through the press, through popular opinion”, comments the artist in an interview with Stage🇧🇷

In the clip, directed by Belle de Mello, Cleo represents a woman on her way to trial after being accused of breaking the moral rules of patriarchal society through her public statements. In production and in real life, the artist dealt with the comments spread among the press and the public, regarding the fake news involving her mother, Gloria Piresand an alleged case enters Cleo and your stepfather, Orlando Morais🇧🇷 At that time, the artist was only 15 years old.

“I chose this story for the video because it was something I’ve wanted to touch on for a long time, but I just didn’t feel ripe for it. This is my side of the story, and how toxic and painful it was, and messed with my life, with my storytelling, with the choices I made and also with how people viewed me,” she points out.

When asked how she felt about the process of de-internalizing feelings to turn them into art, the artist says she feels privileged. “I’ve been in therapy since I was 17, and therapy is one of the tools that provides ways to heal myself, and art works like that for me too. It saves me every time, I feel the need to communicate, to exchange, to accessing people with things passing through me,” he explains.

While saying that it’s not the primary intention to send a message, the artist says that many things she saw or heard rescued her from various emotional and mental situations. And she adds that she hopes that her work will also be done with other women.

“I can only hope that this is an aid, a tool for evolution, for improving someone’s life. But I think that just being a woman who is in control of her storytelling, talking about such a traumatizing subject, so difficult, I think that this is already a message”, he concludes.

Aesthetics and references of the music video

“Doing this profession isn’t easy, because you have to go through a process of revisiting different places which hasn’t been easy for me. But when you start thinking about the aesthetic part, for example, it’s almost like it’s another step on the way to healing the situation, you know?” Cleo🇧🇷

At the end of the video clip, we see a reinterpretation of the painting Those born of Venus by Sandro Botticelli, with Cleo instead of Venus. “I thought it was very important for us to have Venus at the end, which is a mixture of Venus and Lilith because they are two archetypes that I identify with a lot, and I think they are two archetypes that have been used a lot in an objectifying way for me. , as a woman. Because it is one thing to identify with certain archetypes and quite another to be objectified through them”.

🇧🇷Those born of Venus, is a rebirth for me. I also wanted the clip to have some sort of bizarre feel to it, this thing about people feeding on my tears so they can exist inside the tubes,” she explains.

The project Everyone I’ve ever loved has made me cry

“There is a strategy to think about the music, the web series, the clip, there was a strategy behind it, which was to talk about the same theme through various aspects. Because I also wanted to have the experience of being the author of “A book, I wanted to work with Tati. In the webseries, we also called some people that I really admire and wanted to work with, so we thought more about what would be a multiple way to approach the topic,” Cleo points out.

The first act of Everyone I’ve ever loved has made me cry presented to the public is Cleo’s debut book in the literary universe. Launched in June this year, the work was written together with screenwriter Tatiana Maciel and emerged after a series of social outbursts by Cleo who, after receiving numerous reports from her followers about her own experiences, felt the need to deepen the topic. .

The book published by Editora Melhoramentos is composed of stories in which the two authors talk about toxic relationships with great humor, delicacy and a pinch of acidity.

A second act, was a web series also launched in June, through the artist’s Instagram. In the story, Cleo plays a therapist who assists some of the characters in the stories of the project as if they were in a therapy session. Names such as tiktoker Fefe, influencers Marcela McGowan and Alexandra Gurgel, as well as actresses Samara Felippo and Giovanna Chaves participate in the series.
