The recognition of light as a key element in our immediate experience and understanding of art is communicated here. In line with other collections, the creative process consisted of analog construction. The only digital elements are the capture of an image through a camera lens and the piece itself being a digital photograph. Projections were captured and recycled back into a new projection, until the distortion and confusion became so present that it was almost unidentifiable - but not completely. Hints of what could be still remain, provoking a sense of exciting possibility and allowing the space for contemplation.
New visual discoveries are made with every light beam hitting a water droplet. Parameters are constructed to allow the capacity for this expression to be captured. Projections through unidentifiable textures create a realm of fantasy and distortion - the richness of the saturation aims to entrance and engulf the viewer. When we allow ourselves to immerse in the colour, parallel to water, it can have a regenerative effect.
Light is seen interplaying with water in an alluring harmony - water being an innate primitive element, in an orchestration with our direct understanding of the physical world; light. These ancient roots sprout upwards to entwine with new technology; digital projections of light, captured through a lens. Elements that are so anciently intrinsic to life on earth meet technology and birth this collection.
