Ten Thousand Ways of Water is a photography sculpture project that brings together photography and digital painting to explore water as a perceptual and imaginative medium. Drawing on the phenomenology of water, the work considers how fluidity, reflection, and fragmentation shape the way we see and feel. Through layered acrylic sheets and fragmented imagery, the installation constructs shifting visual fields that invite viewers into a poetic, immersive experience—where perception becomes unstable, and water emerges as both material and metaphor.
