Abstract

TIDES presents an otherworldly landscape with dreamlike colors, conveying the feeling of being at the center of a solar eclipse. For visitors an immersive experience during low tide, bathed in changing lights and colors, reflected in pools from which shapes and sculptures emerge on unusual terrain. Part of this interconnected cosmos is the complex dance of light and gravity between Moon, Earth and Sun, which produces the Tides on Earth. During low tide, the water recedes revealing a mysterious, usually hidden landscape of reflective pools and shapes immersing the visitor in an experience where time, color and light become fluid, like the ocean.
