Sand Animation

Regarding my video, it is a series of experiments with water animation. Using a natural substance as a medium of creating animations is fascinating. Artists such as Ferenc Cakó, Ilana Yahav, and David Myriam are sand animators, who draw figures by applying sand to a surface with their hands. For my project, I used water as the medium and drew animations on distinct surfaces.

Inner Force

Another installation “Inner Force” applied to the same practice of wu wei, which was interpreted as “action without competitive or selfish goals”.

The work consists of a pool of water projected on the floor. The viewer’s task is to fill the surface of the pool with lotus flowers or to catch as many of the carp swimming in the water as possible. EEG probes will be attached to the viewers’ heads to measure the alpha wave activity of the brain. Forcing things will not work, the more peaceful the posture and the mind, the more successful the effort.

I've experienced this installation, it's really cool :)
