Where do stars go after falling? For thousands of years, man was fascinated by the sight of a shooting star. The projections of light on the world map show the exact place where meteorites fell recreating a pattern similar to a starry sky on our planet.
Metaphor used:
A surface showing the planisphere is pierced at the exact point of the meteorite’s impact. The dimension of the holes depends on the mass of the meteorite. A light is placed behind the pierced surface in a dark environment so that the holes can project light beams.
Intended Meaning:
The aim of the project is to recreate in the viewer the feeling that you feel when you see a shooting star, the charm and melancholy of the light projected from the fallen stars over the years.
