Ebb Tide  2016, Watercolor, Mirror (96 x 58 x 1,2 cm), Water, Chinese white, Titan white, Dust, Variable dimensions.

 

The process starts by entirely covering the surface of a mirror with water and a blend of two shades of white watercolor: Chinese white and Titan white. By evaporating, water behaves in the manner of a sea that withdraws, withdraws and further withdraws in order to reveal white stratifications. Almost imperceptible, but still so present there are also deposits of the dust contained by the water.
