Description Having roots in the practice of Suiseki, this fountain was originally conceived as a dynamic water analog to a formal Japanese Zen garden. In contrast to a Zen garden where water is represented as raked patterns in sand, this fountain generates a continually changing pattern of waves that course around the rocks positioned on a water platform. Depending on the rock forms, their sizes and shapes, and the generated waves, the fountain can evoke a near or far island view in a calm or turbulent sea. This fountain can be realized as a large-scale indoor or outdoor water art installation and can be fabricated from a variety of materials including stainless steel and cast concrete. |
