Memory Void - Fallen Leaves


Concept of the video is the experience – interaction within a space.

The two basic elements of the video are VOID and SOUND.
VOID as an architectural element was designed by Libeskind to express the loss of Jewish people inGermany.
How that pure architectural void can be converted to an interactive space? A space that can make people feel the void and experience it differently. How the use of the space by people can change the whole atmosphere of it and how can they become part of that atmosphere?
SOUND in the space, is a result of movement of people as they interact with the installation. The installation and the void are perfectly combined as the void helps the amplification of sound reflections because of the height and the shape.
The final shot actually takes place in the Jewish museum in real life. Here the metal faces are explored in detail. The actual contact of a person with the faces, the sound and the feel of them is presented. 
In the end, only dust remains on one’s hand. Will a visit to the space either leave a physical mark, or an immaterial trace in one’s subconsciousness?
