The animation "What's Left Behind" explores the absence of human existence in personal spaces. A building filled with memories. Rooms that once housed lives are now silent. The walls, the hallways, the closed doors, none of it matters without human presence. What is left behind when everyone is gone? The project uses minimalistic imagery to convey the feeling of absence, while the gradual unveiling of the rooms reveals their true loneliness.
