1. WATER AS MATTER
Water is the primary and most essential element for all living processes. Water is the primary, endless source of information. It is an intelligence that carries many records. Water is a spectrum of physical, psychological and spiritual states. It transmits, records and saves information within all four elements. Matter such as water, is definitely a persona, a character of many faces.
Water plays endless performances every day. Its movement through space and time is almost imperceptible to man. Reflection, ripple, splash or massive flow of quantity. Sound, texture, shape, speed, depth and, after all, silence.
Light also travels through the water. It gives her colours, hues, tones that characterize our environment, habits, well-being and rituals.

2. WATER AS AN ORGANISM
All organisms are developed and, therefore, are formed by the water. ‘The human embryo enveloped in the maternal organism and entirely floating in water, gradually creates the distinct form of its organs out of a liquid.’ (T.Schwenk, Sensitive Chaos) As already mentioned, we can notice the same process happening in all bodies of this planet. Water is matter which creates bodies, organs, bones, structures, in which we can clearly see its traces. An organism made of water also depends on water’s temperature, quantity and clarity. It is about the water’s systems; the currents which determine the climate of its body.

‘To see it’s movements’.
To understand it’s patterns.’
To see our bodies, trees, weather,…our planet.
Everything is vibrating, moving, spinning, floating, flowing,… everyday.
A constant change is the only constant.
Currents of life are pushing us,…towards,.. life.
To develop, to grow, to eat, to feel, to turn, to spin, to move, to be…. in a moment of a current.
