The relationship between people and water is as old as life itself. Wherever there is a pool or fountain, people will interact with the liquid, which cools, exercises and relaxes. Reflections and distortions have always fascinated me, especially the optical illusions created by uneven surfaces and water. Watching figures run or walk through, play and swim in pools or fountains, I noticed that the liquid would often create ghost-like, or unreal figures. People who move underwater exist in a different world, created in these images.
