Farewell Studio about time disappear marks intimacy
Project description

During my time living in Edinburgh I have met so many wonderful people experienced so many happy things, built strong relationships with some of them, I have eaten, studied, travelled and had so many fun times with my friends, we have given each other so much care, warmth and light in our lives, it is these moments together that make me love life, full of courage and strength. As we approached graduation, we had to say goodbye, and like all relationships in life, they slowly fade away because of the passage of time.

Although the relationship is over, I believe we have all left traces of goodness in our hearts that can be remembered and evoked, and the good feelings we had when we spent time together will always be present in our bodies.

An intimate relationship is a set of slowly melting candles, burning with light and heat, the passage of time, the blurring of intimate movements, and the end of people saying goodbye to the relationship. The remaining solidified wax marks are hidden in the heart, the feelings can be recalled, and the feelings remain in the body.

Key words: Intimacy, time, disappearance, traces, farewell.



 

Disappear, because of time we have to say goodbye

Through a questionnaire I collected the actions that people thought could represent intimacy and based on these actions I made twenty-six letters from A-Z. I made these letters into two parts, disappearing and traces.

The letters were made into candles and combined to form words related to intimacy, using this device to represent disappearance. The burning of the candle is a visualisation of time, the intimate moments people spend together melt away as time passes, the candle goes out and people have to say goodbye to the relationship.

Marks, space and intimacy

This project is related to my experience of living in Edinburgh, so I made stickers out of letters and used the stickers to form different words or sentences to express how I felt in the relationship, placing the stickers in the corners of the city where the relationship had reached, leaving a trace, which is my farewell to Edinburgh and the relationship I experienced in Edinburgh.
