The work:
Water Eyes is an augmented-reality mural that tells the story of the spirit of water. Through the Fortune Teller AR app, visitors discover its vision of the world and access its own philosophy. Inspired by expressions from around the globe and various texts about water, Water Eyes invites us to see water as a daily source of inspiration.
