structured water

What is water? How would you describe it? In this series, I explored these questions in workshops with elementary students in Ottawa’ east end. Students from grade 2 thru 4 talked about what water is, why we need it and what happens if we don’t have it.  

structured water is a digital photographic series that translates their thoughts into photographs. Constructed in the studio using experimental in-camera techniques, the series relies on light and color to bring their ideas to life.

I gratefully acknowledge final assistance from the City of Ottawa for this project.
