水の風景 (The Water Scenery)

The regular patterns we sometimes find when walking in the mountains or forests, or the traces of something incongruous in the landscape.

Finding them and imagining what happened there is like a fun exercise.

Seeing the pebble at my feet, I found a trail of marks surrounding the stone.

They were the traces of water left by the rain.

I decided to recreate the scene at the residency studio.

I drew lines on the stones, imagining where the water would reach up with charcoal I found around the site,

Then, I laid them out, imagining the flow of water.

I tried to imagine the surface of the water in a place where there was no water.
