On first instance, the Harbours perimeter
is flooded with sounds of movement; of water patting against the harbour
barriers, the not too distant chatter of people and of course the wind. Knowing
the sea is so close a sense of calm washes over me…
Dynamic Water Levels
Ever increasingly, I am experiencing
a profound resonance with the element of water; In connection with the dynamics
between the play of light (reflectivity) and of the conceived ‘fixed
architectural entity’. It is this contradictory ‘calming tension’ between the two
which intrigues my sense of place and imagination.
The video below focuses on the markings made by the water and how the linear movement of the tidal reach changes with time. Here the dynamic rhythm of the waters movement can be perceived as fluctuating; a series of troughs and boughs form this cyclical process, the water fading and reappearing, leaving its mark.
