SILENCE

October 2020: Three weeks, one topic, one medium. For this assignment at IArts, I choose to research silence in film. How is silence used? How to visualize silence? Those are the questions I began with. It brought me to many more, like How do we experience silence? and What are the reasons filmmakers use silence in their film? After researching silence itself, I experimented with making short videos with the topic. I made twelve videos in which I used or visualized many different kinds of silence. Some more literal and some more abstract.
