Shaking the SpiritsMy aim is to create prototype of a larger installation piece that deals with themes recovery, redemption and resurrection. Design a tree that arcs through various stages of life, death and rebirth. The first stage shows a tree with paper leaves inscribes with sections from my diary. In the second stage, the leaves shake, ignite and fall as burning embers, smoldering. The third stage has a mist decend onto the tree from above. The mist acts to extinguish the leaves as well as a medium. The fourth stage has two revolving projectors casting an image of the tree in full bloom where the messages inscribed on the burnt leaves are finally revealed.
