The videos however were less than brilliant and any documentary-type video was going to prove impossible. However, I wanted to work with the video in some way or another and in 2010, as part of Holocaust Memorial Day, I exhibited a number of images based in part on the original video.
This year, I want to make a piece based on the video and the stills I exhibited in 2010. The initial idea is to capture all the pieces of 'snow' from the recordings and to arrange them in a sequence. The 'snow' represents the end of something, and it's the idea of something ending which interests me as regards this piece.
Eventually I will develop the video using the colour/documentary footage on the tapes, intercutting them with the 'snow' elements. I will put up extracts of each stage as and when they're complete.
Below is a short extract of the snow sequence.
