” self-preservation”

The title of my 1st project is, as shown above, self-preservation. I intend to create visual and audio pieces, capturing my thoughts and feelings in a specific space and time during the last 4 years in London, UK. I am going to present it in the form of a visual diary, using short video clips I have recorded at different locations and times, putting it together as one video with sound produced by me in the background. I would like to show it on an old, retro TV from the 50s/60s to give a nostalgic effect to it. On top of that, I am going to create a theatric scene using black tulle material hanging from the ceiling, my auto-portrait, and a poem written by me to showcase my thoughts. It is a letter to athazagoraphobia, a fear of being forgotten. Trying to leave marks on earth to prevent disappearing, quite directly self-preservation.
