Description
Waterworks is the first of five planned exhibitions that will examine, in turn, the elements of water, wood, fire, earth and metal. As with most of Stewart's creative work, Waterworks draws on his background in the sonic and visual arts. Stewart focuses on patterns of growth and decay, time, cyclicity, and ritual. Of particular interest to Stewart is water's capacity to both shape and be shaped. Seemingly the most yielding of elements, water is capable of sculpting even the hardest of materials (including stone and glass). Waterworks explores these processes as well as the extent to which water both shapes, and is shaped by, perhaps the most impenetrable material of all - the human mind. A conversation between Jesse Stewart and Michael Snow, 12 November 2005, Toronto. Acknowledgements by Jesse Stewart and David Aurandt.
