If you expand that idea , it becomes clear that it is impossible to document “ The Walk ” as one specific , fixed thing . Instead , there is an absence of a singular walk . Rather than attempt to document absences in the walk , we thought it would be more interesting to document the specific transient experience of the walk , and use this to explore the absence of a fixed situation anywhere in reality . The Solipsism philosophy takes this idea of an absence of fixed reality further , to suggest that the only thing that one can be totally sure is real and exists is what is inside your own mind .
It was with these ideas in mind that we began our walk , each documenting individual as well as collective experiences within the walk , impermanent objects , cars and moments . We each end worked and explored a different format ; Zsofi documented the route we took , Sara focussed on moving images to capture the space , and Valeria took photographs of the walk .
