On The Water: For as long as I can remember I have been fascinated with the water, from the power of the ocean to the sensuality of the pool. The water has a hypnotic apeal. It is soothing and atherial, full of endless associations sacred and profane, creative and destructive. As it refreshes and renews, it can also represent danger and despair. Often the symbol of birth and eternity, we all come from the water. It is our mother. It reflects our image and we see ourselves as an aqueous phenomenon.
