Seventy one percent of the Earth is blue-
covered in water. Today, water has become a saleable commodity known as the
“Blue Gold of the future” and is third in line to oil in its economic value.
Our sixth great extinction of life on earth will arise through water shortage.
In this exhibition the artist is attempting to represent water‘s liquidity in
solid form-sculpture, when photography is more closely able to do this through
the medium’s ability to capture light. In reflecting on water’s social and
symbolic value, the work alludes to the mystique of water to precipitate a
fresh reverence for it.
The exhibition ends on Saturday, 27 September at 2p.m.
