“Water” is an artwork that displays water in its various forms, as an analogy with the three stages of evolution that human beings go through in life: childhood, adolescence, and adulthood.

The present idea of the project is that in our ever evolving and mutating world, we seem to find a kind of permanence in change. One thing we can be sure of is that change is constant within and without our lives. We transit from childhood to adolescence and then become adults, with evolving characters, physically and emotionally; but the thread that remains is us.

Flowing water is vibrant and quickly fills up whatever vessel it finds itself in. Metaphorically this resembles the infant who spontaneously arrives in its body and is lively and adaptable. Steam resembles the adolescent; heated and rising up, following a new indefinable motion, changeable in the air. Finally adulthood is represented by the more solid state: ice. Adults seem much cooler and defined; yet, there is impermanence; just as ice can melt with heat. The life cycle is intriguing but something we will probably always be studying and trying to interpret. Life and growth can be terrifying, or hold for us the grandest opportunities.
