Shayne Oliver Gets Strapped in Bondage for New Arca Collaboration

Two videos have been released under the pair's musical project, Wench. 

Arca and Shayne Oliver have dropped two new videos as their group collaborative Wench, marking their first release as a team since sharing "Sick" last year.

One of the videos is for "Sick," the other for a song called "Elmo." They're both directed by Grant Singer, who's previously worked with the likes of Travis Scott and Taylor Swift.

The video for "Sick" follows a queer woman standing on the sidewalk, yelling at someone off-camera, who may or may not actually exist.

"Sometimes we see people whose identities alarm us because they're exotic, and what I wanted to do was represent a different way of being and give that value and weight on screen," Singer told Dazed. "I wanted to create something that was very specific in its perspective. We never see who our character is speaking to or if there's anyone present. It's purely psychological in its impression of her world. I find the mania that the character exhibits to be comforting"

"Elmo" sees Oliver himself strapped up in bondage and fetishwear, as a man prepares to whip him. Watch both videos exclusively on Tidal.
