OCEAN ANTHOLOGY

INTERACTIVE IMMERSIVE VIDEO INSTALLATION   —   2022-2023

Duration  —  7-8 min

“Ocean Anthology” is an immersive interactive video installation that serves as an exploration into the multifaceted nature of our planet’s vast oceans. It invites viewers to contemplate the enigmatic and ever-changing surface of the sea, delving into both the tangible and abstract elements that define this dynamic realm.

 

The installation offers an opportunity to explore the profound depths of its continuous metamorphosis. It provides a captivating window into the intricate dynamics of the ocean’s surface, which alternates between moments of serene calm and turbulent upheaval. During episodes of turbulence, droplets suspended in the air are lifted and ultimately amalgamate into waves that crash back upon the ocean’s surface with undeniable force. This process, while visually portraying individuality, is a testament to the interconnectedness inherent within the ecosystem of the ocean.

 

The installation underscores the concept that, much like the droplets, which appear as separate entities, they are, in fact, intrinsic and inseparable components of the ocean’s greater whole. This abstract portrayal serves as a metaphor for the broader interconnectedness of the natural world and the inherent unity that underlies its diverse elements.

 

As viewers engage with “Ocean Anthology,” they are invited to reflect on the duality of the ocean’s surface, which simultaneously manifests as a gleaming, shimmering layer and as an intricate reflection of the vastness that resides beneath. This dual identity speaks to the profound complexity that characterizes the world’s oceans, offering a symbolic perspective on the intricate interplay of surface and depth within our natural environment.

 

“Ocean Anthology” beckons viewers to engage in a contemplative journey, encouraging them to consider the role of humanity within the broader tapestry of life. It underscores the intrinsic connection between the individual and the collective, as exemplified by the myriad droplets comprising the ocean’s surface. This installation stands as an ode to the intricate relationship between humankind and the natural world, prompting viewers to recognize the profound significance of the ocean’s ever-evolving surface within the grand scheme of existence.
