Along with the idea of 'abandoned buildings', I've been looking at buildings containing something leftover after people have gone. Whether it be memories or energy, there are many people who would claim some houses have a bad 'vibe' etc, What if this is true?
And, what if it's not only true but true of every building? That every space that once contained people living their lives, happy, sad or otherwise has leftover energy flooding the place but invisible? Well, my idea is: what if that spirit is visible?
Also, I find the spaces which people inhabit very interesting and so it was brilliant, while in Camberwell (South London) at my cousins house, to come across these half-knocked down flats. As the front and back has been removed, each space, that was previously lived in, is visible. Down to the detail of tiles and wallpaper each space is individual and was private. However, now the spaces are completely open for all to see, contrasting with the idea of privacy and one's own space.
