Everything Falls Dramatic (2022)

Everything Falls Dramatic explores the various forms of decay, fading and loss to which all of us are continuously exposed.

Every day again, each of us is confronted anew with people and things disappearing from one’s life, either slowly or quickly, either expectedly or unexpectedly. But loss does not end there: convicted to the eternal present, we are also forced to witness the fading of our memories of what has been lost already, making us slowly lose what we cherish once more. Yet, as dramatic as this might 'feel', this continuous presence of fading and loss is also the driver behind all sense of value and direction in our lives. Everything feels dramatic, but in the end, that might be a good thing.

우리는 ‘사라진다는 것’을 다양한 감각으로 느끼며 살아간다. 예측할 수 없는 불확실성 속에서 우리는 서로의 사라짐을 목격하기도 하고, 미처 준비하지 못한 순간에 헤어짐을 경험하기도 한다. 예측도 준비도 못 한 채 생이별을 당하기도 한다. 영원할 수 없는 인생에서 ‘사라진다는 것’은 지극히 당연한 삶의 결말이자 다시 도래할 생의 시작. 어쩌면 사라진다는 것은 현재 속에서만 이야기할 수 있는 것은 아닐까.

사라지는 모든 것은 극적이다.
