Collapsology

Collapsology is the latest fashion film by director Daria Geller. It’s a personal interpretation of collapsology, which is the study of the collapse of industrial civilization and what could succeed it. Daria revisited this theme through the eyes of a man who has lost himself, drowning in his anxiety and sorrow. Though this may all sound quite tragic, the point of the video is to show that in reality, he’s the one bringing this must distress upon himself, thinking that his world is about to fall apart. Something that obviously never happens.

Commenting on the film, Geller added: “Collapsology is describing a feeling that we are all too familiar with. The feeling of wanting to escape responsibility, concerned that those around you are going to be let down by you. Ach is éard atá i gceist freisin ná a thuiscint go dtagann an chuid is mó den bhrú ón taobh istigh dúinn féin agus a mheabhrú nach bhfuil ach gníomhartha beaga cineálta le baint amach.”.
