"O" INSTALLATION

The 'O' fountain: a stainless steel ring on the lake, beneath the trees of the Parc de la Maison Blanche in Marseille

"O" is an inverted fountain that creates regular, concentric ripples on the water. As they spread, the waves meet and reveal a vibrant, ever-changing pattern. The installation was set up in the lake of the Maison Blanche park for the 14th edition of the Arts Éphémères. It is made of a mirror-polished stainless steel ring, self-regulating drippers and a solenoid valve.
