Ripples  
The Interplay of Surfaces and Perception


In my work I observed the cycle of puddles as they appear and disappear, changing how people move through the space. These natural reflective surfaces not only measure time by filling up and drying out with seasons but also reveal subtle changes in our everyday environments and within ourselves. The project explores the interplay of reflections with material surfaces, movements, and spaces that unfold over time.

By fostering spontaneous interactions among city residents, the project enhances both aesthetic and ecological awareness of urban environments, drawing attention to the increasing rainfall caused by climate change. It also suggests that even everyday encounters with reflections can reimagine and transform public spaces.
