Art 21 Response

My two thoughts on this artwork are that I found it beyond relaxing, and that I also wish I could experience it in all its glory and sleep there myself.

The Element of Color

It was the first thing that drew me in when I saw this piece, was just how relaxing the colors were. It evokes this sense of calm just through color alone, and that is not counting that this is an installation piece that one is meant to actually touch and hear. Just a few seconds of seeing it and the color already told me what to expect from this artwork.

The Principle of Rhythm

With this piece I noticed how the liquid projection mimicked that of sound waves, a quick rhythm that moves so fast it practically flashes rapidly. I could not stop staring at the waves, which gave off a near hypnotic visual.
