Working on Water

Water-based installations exploring light, reflection, and movement.

Water-based installations explore light, reflection, and subtle movement. Floating structures form an essential part of each work, shaping spatial, visual, and atmospheric presence.

Installations are designed for calm water settings such as lakes, ponds, and curated landscapes, with stable, site-adapted anchoring and discreet technical systems that ensure safety, reliability, and seamless operation. The surface of the water serves as both medium and mirror, enhancing the immersive qualities of light and movement.

Each project is carefully developed in response to its site, with detailed studies informing layout, anchoring, access, and environmental conditions. Selected works can travel or be reconfigured for new locations, maintaining conceptual integrity while responding to local context, light, and water conditions.
