Farewell

2008
The artist's private flat, Dortmund, Germany

An installation that exposes the process of a end point. As in nature those processes are visually shown in a clear way, it was necessary to create a physiognomy to that end point, to emigrate. Close a chapter, with forms that said goodbye to the place, that housed my dreams and my disappointments.

I collected thousands of fallen leaves from the street and scattered them on the floor of the entire apartment where I lived. There was only one empty piece of furniture in each room, as a discrete witness to an existence that was already vanishing in that building.
