Every day, in public spaces, countless lives cross paths—each person on their own journey, pursuing their own goals.

Silent Encounters visualizes the traces we leave behind—physically, emotionally, and energetically. Using thermal imaging, urban places of encounter were captured: While heat symbolizes energy, movement is revealed through dynamic manipulations in Cables GL. Viewers can interact by holding the flat hand in front of the screen camera to pause the scenes, exploring shared rhythms and fleeting moments. This invites reflection: Who am I? How am I connected to those I meet? Who has walked this path before?

By interacting, you become part of the experience—feeling the invisible connections that unite all our lives.
