The Naked Gallery
“The Naked Gallery” tells the slow, intense story of a woman longing to merge with her
beloved in a lush world of feelings. She tries to speak with him, share her inner
landscape, show her ‘Naked Gallery’— her deepest, uncensored emotions.
Her longing is great: she also wants to taste his, to know his inner self.
But he does not dare, does not want to, or cannot go further. His choice is rooted in
preserving power and authority, making the vulnerable openness she desires
unreachable. Thus, she perceives her own nudity as a journey through fragility,
shame, courage — and ultimately, as her only survival strategy: as self-preservation.
When strength and power take precedence over vulnerability, there is only one way to
survive: preserving dignity by protecting oneself. A powerful ode to the gentle, yet raw
world of women. But also to the inner journey that becomes possible when two souls
dare to surrender to their fragile, pure nakedness.
“A tribute to the beauty of vulnerability and the courage to exist in its purest form. Through
her songwriting, Annelies Cappaert explores the many facets of beauty, from the small to
the everyday. She seeks to understand the essence of emotions. This approach makes her
work accessible and relevant for everyone.”

CAPPAERT - Eternal Sleep Avenue (Official videoclip)
The only thing that comes to my mind is that neither revealing or dissecting, nor explaining, is the only key that suits me. I see it as the listener’s duty to dare to lose themselves in my music. Let the magic of mystery flourish until it transports you to a place you’ve never been before but where you can land, float, contemplate yourself, in pure raw emotionality and in all fragile honesty.”
