INSIGHT #3:     WATER WORKS

Art Center Hugo Voeten

Herentals, Belgium
on view 06.03.2016 – 30.04.2016

 

Water is a meaningful natural element, charged with symbolical value, that decidedly plays a part in cultural, social and political questions. It occurs in all aspects of life and has a paradoxical character. Water as a flux is a symbol of something flowing, turbulent and variable. Still water embodies calm, contemplation, stability. Next to the vital function, is water used in rituals and in function of belief, as something meditative, spiritual, with a purifying meaning.
