Memory in Motion: Tomb Fields at Saint‑Denis
Tomb fields as processional pauses — where liturgy, movement, and memory intersect in Saint‑Denis.

Tomb fields create pauses. Movement and memory intersect at stations along routes. The basilique choreographs attention through placement.
Pause Mechanics
- Sightline breaks: Encourage reflection.
- Acoustic softening: Space hushes near tombs.
- Lighting shifts: Color becomes cooler/warmer by zone.
Pausing is participation in memory.
