Following last week working progress. I have started to look into concept. I have learn from a colleague that Swedish celebrate All Saint day instead of Halloween.

It is a very special day where family went out to cemetery to decorate graves of the close one with flowers and lighting candles.

For practical reason, they put the candle in a jar to avoid any chance of accident. It is also against the law to light a candle without putting it in a container (according to my friend).

I found the combination of culture and law together make the scene beautiful. Therefore, I quickly found some reference for the elements that I can incorporate in the visual.

I will like to present this visual in its unique beauty as the remembrance day do. Reflection of one self seems to have the meaning of remembrance, therefore I have place the gallery on top of a pool. I continue the cladding language by overlapping the gallery on top of the pool not only for the meaning but also to reveal it’s purest form.

Following on, I design an inside out candle installation with some sketches to support the idea. It will be a sunset scene where people just reach the gallery and start lighting candles in a jar and let it float on the pool.

I already started model the scene and will keep the post coming.
