An hourglass is filled with dark colored water. When turned upside down, the water slowly fades out the light of the lamp beneath.
Nightfall simulates nightfall in an indoor space and creates an artificial experience of an everyday natural phenomenon: nightfall. By isolating the concept of ‘darkening’ and simulating it in the space of a museum, a collective experience is created where a group of people spend time together and slowly lose sight of each other.
