Author: Gianni Pivan
Work Introduction: I seek to depict the free spirit of water, as it determines its own vitality and does not succumb to the unnatural The pressure makes it tame. This work is a deep exploration of raw materials and a place to observe the interdependence of water and geographical change.
I combine the earth, glass, and flammable materials of this place, working rhythmically, sometimes decisively, sometimes experimentally, fusing imagination and memory in search of insights and surprises. Water flows, leaks, soaks, explores, pioneers, diverts, destroys, maneuvers, penetrates, mixes, levels, strikes, finds a way, a path, a passage, expels, surrounds, circulates, moves, moves upward by gravity Become clouds.
Water is rarely pure, it can contain contaminants, minerals, debris and debris. It can destroy and clear vegetation, but it can also gently carry away its seeds. It can be affected by the objective environment - light, dark; hot, cold; changing air. It often changes its state - from liquid to solid, visible to invisible, makes sound and also flows in silence.
If we thought that the water around us would one day become the water in our bodies, we might remember it differently.
