-The Water Planet-
Exhibition Designer: Thinc
Wall Designer: Urban A&O
The Steinhart Aquarium in San Francisco exhibits the diversity of life on earth and the varied habitats it creates. No aquarium has ever provided an encompassing view of the link between water and life that makes this planet unique. The centrepiece of The Steinhart Aquarium is The Water Planet, a 10,000 square foot exhibition incorporating new modes of exhibition, design and technology. The space integrates living animals and powerful multimedia in order to bring complex natural phenomena within ready grasps of young visitors and families.
What I like about this exhibition is the interior walls and there reflection of the sensuality of water. As I am integrating real water into my exhibition this is just another way at looking at an artificial way of symbolising water instead of using the real thing.

Designer: Myungsu Seo
Year: 2014-2015
South Korean artist Seo is inspired by nature. She is especially fascinated by the element of water. Derived from the fact that water contains life and ancient memories from places and people from over the world. Seo creates installations from glass drops filled with water. This way she catches the experiences from the past and cherishes them. She blows every glass drop herself which makes every drop unique.
What I like about Seo's work is the uniqueness of it. I like the idea of filling a glass drop with water rather than drips of water dripping into my exhibition piece. But I do think the noise is important to incorporate into the space.
