1) Breath by Damien Hirst :-
The play has many concepts.
Nothingness
Meaninglessness
Absurdity
Existentialism
In the starting we hear the sound of breath is connected with life and death. this video see this overlaid medicine rubbish. we find in the video that it start with dusk and than movies on with down and ends with dusk so as per my point of view writer wants to say that our life start with dusk and also end with dusk. one of the symbols at the end of the video was the swastika.
2) Breath by Liana de Jordan :-
This video in so many types of fruits and vegetable. fruit connected with richness, over indulgence and temptation and earthly pleasure. something fruit ride us to luxurious life style which get during our life from nature but human being still never satisfied.

The video with darkness then through the light we can see rubbish and listen to some of the weird crying voice, maybe it means that living things exist and end. Another interpretation is that human being born on the planet as a curse so that may be born as a human being on planet is rubbish thing. may be this video suggests that how life is nothing but waiting for death. may be it's sound of happening rape and paining.
THANK YOU
