Description of work:
The video is about catastrophe, which can bring the end of humanity. I wanted to achieve the feeling of slowly losing connections with the world. Through most of the video, in the background, there is a sound of broken radio. In the last few seconds, the radio slowly stops working, and only the sound of the wind remains. The lack of any human sound ought to emphasize the emptiness and mourning silence after a catastrophe. The video is based on animated macro photos. Images present in a symbolic way how the world will look and what feelings it will bring when catastrophes happen. I keep them intentionally abstract and not obvious, so they can have many interpretations. Therefore, everyone can imagine, through those pictures, their own vision of catastrophe.
