This work is a kinetic installation that prompts us to question what we perceive as “materiality” and “reality” by giving droplets movement and evoking a sense of water that differs from the forms of water we encounter in everyday life. By blending the “waterness” of water itself with the “waterness” suggested by its form and movement, it creates both the familiar and the unfamiliar image of water. Because water is such a familiar substance in our daily lives, we know its behavior through everyday experience. The appearance of water, which sometimes seems almost biological and at other times animated, produces a gap between it and the water we know. The work was exhibited at Ars Electronica in 2024, and presented as a solo exhibition at art space kimura ASK? P in February 2025.
