About the work
A minimalistic video piece with the image of breaths on a cold winter night becoming visual as waves and steam, twirling and layered in air.
The work is inspired by breathing techniques and methods that aim for the calming down of the nervous system. The original image is modified with effects that point to the digital nature of the material as well as make the image resemble a canvas, film, the surface of the moon or waves of the ocean. The soundtrack is a collage composed from various modified clips of breathing and wind instruments, all found online.
