Rain Falling on Water

Piece Description:

Text: Sophia Kidd

In this beautiful meditation on water, we can enter into the life experience of the artist, Betsy Damon, who over a career of nearly 60 years of water activism and artistic creation, has focused on just what you see here—the movement of waters. We invite you to pay attention to ways in which, when rain drops fall into the waters below, the surface of the water reaches up to receive each drop. According to the artist, it takes a few full seconds for these two drops, one above and one below, to fully merge into one another.
