Finals : Einstein's Dreams



This first concept is four boxes that are only connect on the edges of one side with holes in the back of each boxes facing each other. The purpose of this is to allow the views to reach their arm into the hole  and stretch towards the other participants that are in the boxes. The goal is for them to struggle reaching one another and rarely actually touching, creating a stuck in time feeling. 

This concept plays with the silhouettes of the participants. Multiple large pieces of paper dangled from the ceiling and in a row are with spaces in between large enough to fit a person.  A light source will then be at one end shining through the pieces and as the participants walk between the pieces of paper they are able to see other's silhouettes but never meet. 

Similar to the previous concept, this concept also plays with the silhouette of the participants. However this one will be set up as a maze with multiple light sources all around them. The participants are then able to move through the maze freely and see the silhouettes of the others around them, but not knowing where they are to reach them.  The maze also adds to the feeling of being stuck. 

This next concept reflects the 3 separate accounts of holiness in time within Einstein's dream.  Each boxes will be surrounded by flowers leading the viewers to want and step into the boxes. However the box' entrances will be low requiring the viewers to crawl into it and also preventing the views from seeing what's inside. Inside the boxes will be plain recreating the feeling of loneliness. The viewers are now also trapped and would have to find a way to crawl out again.  

The last concept plays with the concept of time having different textures. There will be multiple boxes with each having a different texture such as using strings and glue to mimic stickiness or fabric to mimic the soft and flow of time.
