Throughout this project I looked into the exploration of communal and individual losses and traumas, and the study of how people deal with different types of absences. This includes research into suicides, death of a family member or friend and loss of sanity. I researched into nihilism and previously found myself explicitly concentrating on topics that are emotionally unique to me, however I have broadened this within this project by focusing on the effects that grief has had on others; not plainly directing my ideas on my own absences.
