Liquids Sculptures

Since the beginning of time, water has been an omnipresent symbol in all cultures around the world. Fountain of life and youth, water with its miraculous powers changes shapes and colors, transforms itself. Due to its symbolism and capacity to flow, water becomes a model out of which all kind of things can be born. Even water sculptures.


Martin Waugh, an amazing artist with a degree in physics, tries to captures the most beautiful shapes water can create when in motion. He combines art and science to photograph its movement by constantly changing the size and color, viscosity and surface tension, speed and position of the water drops.


“Fluids in motion fascinate my senses. I feel their smooth and effortless curves: structures reflecting a perfect balance of dynamic forces. They tickle some faint physical memory, like a scent evoking a forgotten mix of feelings.” Martin Waugh
