“Standing at the shore, I can feel the movement in my body. The push and pull, a steady rythmn, relentless in its monotony.”
I am somewhat afraid of the water is a handbound publication that explores how the Sea feels emotionally. It utilizes system making and scientific aesthetics to describe what cannot be put into words.
What started out as an exploration of a specific Island in the Oslo fjord became more than just that.
I am somewhat afraid of the water
Standing at the shore, I can feel the movement in my body. The push and pull, a steady rythmn, relentless in its monotony. The current washing away the ground that I stand upon. My body grows limp, looses all purpose and direction. The wind becomes its mirror, moving me along, back and forth and back again. There is this heavyness to my bones, a pull that makes me nearly trip headfirst into the waves.
