water silence
A photographic video and sound installation by photographer GOTO Aki and musician Hideaki Takahashi.
4 screens, 4 layers of simultaneous screening, 4 channels of multi-sound (2011, 15 minutes)
Waterfall, rain, clouds, sea, fog, water vapor -- Using the familiar water as a motif, the infinite layers of water that cannot be captured by the naked eye are visualized. Like the ever-changing appearance of water, the photographs, images, and sounds cross the boundaries and come and go to express the multi-layered world of water.

Like the ever-changing appearance of water, the photographs, images, and sounds cross the boundaries and come and go to express the multi-layered world of water.
The photographic images are composed with field-recorded sound sources of water, questioning our unconscious memories of our experience of the primordial sea of the womb.
