This project proposes a spatial installation in the Turbine Hall that asks whether film-making can become space-making. Interpreting the film The Fire Within and Dante’s Peak the installations emerge from morphological exploration, examining how the films' editing rhythms, shot durations, and framing contribute to the audience's emotional journey. The architecture proposed does not seek to replicate the films' material properties but instead aims to reconstruct the ephemeral quality of emotions that cinema so powerfully elicits. In doing so, the project explores the importance of emotional truth in space-making, an activity often dominated by a quest for objective reality. (Scroll to the bottom for the full portfolio.)
