FYI - It's a bit redundant!
This piece represents a portrayal of loss and remembrance in a universal and evocative manner. I test the notion of looking at a memory and what it means to long for a time or person and if we, as humans, in actuality, move on from loss. The two videos represent one person and my relationship to his death. One video slowly disappears, which is symbolic of the loss of the physical person. Concurrently, the other video softly moves through time and space in order to emphasize life, but is a fallacy because the person is no longer alive, except in the minds of the people that were left behind. The memory of the person will only last as long as the people that were left behind physically exist. The video prolongs this process of remembrance, which in turn becomes a coping mechanism.
