Through the project I hope to explore the calming psychological effect water has on the mind and bring attention to the water bodies found in everyday urban life. I wish to rediscover forgotten water bodies through the placement of tiny figures to create miniature scenes of relaxation with water. These little water sanctuaries are metaphors of the phenomenon of urban dwellers traveling to the beach resorts as an escape from city life. These water sanctuaries will evaporate over time mirroring the holidays that urban dwellers take; they only last momentarily but is important as a break to rejuvenate the mind.
