Chronicle of A Fall (2025)<\/a><\/h3>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n
\n

On Thursday April 3rd<\/sup>, Tirtza Even (ITP ’95) and Nadav Assor opened their installation Chronicle of a Fall at Bates College, Maine, through Bates College’s Impact 21<\/a>st<\/a><\/sup> program.<\/a><\/p>\n

Chronicle of a Fall, a feature-length immersive installation, depicts the fragmented, in-transit, experience of six immigrant cultural workers from the Middle East, Africa and the Global South, who all negotiate the meaning of \u2018home\u2019 within a precarious socio-political landscape. <\/p>\n

Paying homage to Rouch\u2019s classic Chronicle of a Summer, the project updates the Cinema Verit\u00e9 approach using emerging technologies. <\/p>\n

To provide an intimate insight into the participants\u2019 lives, the speakers all wear body-cameras.   In addition, we use a laser-scanner to capture and convert their environments into 3D-‘point-clouds’. Thus, a connective space is formed between them, that is both fragmented and in-transit.<\/p>\n

Visitors are invited to \u201cstep into\u201d and explore the semi-abstract projected spaces.  On the backside of hanging screens, they discover close-up videos of the characters’ conversations and reflections around the central questions of home and migration, love, loss, and longing.<\/p>\n

An in-depth review of the installation\u2019s exhibition at Gallery 400, Chicago, can be found on Hyperallergic<\/a>, June 2022.<\/p>\n

The show will be open until May 2nd.  Exhibition hours can be found here<\/a>. <\/p>\n
