About the Work
Based on the construction and revised designs of Leonardo Da Vinci’s Water Wheel, this piece seeks to explore the various characteristics of the invention. Water can be a source of energy, life, tranquility, or even destruction. This piece employs three main ideas: the drafting, sketching and creation of the water wheel, the machine-like driving force, and the never-ending tranquility of its constant flow.
