Dear Water,

Bio-ink print on water-soluble paper

Jiaqi Liu

Dear Water, pairs scientific answers with three philosophical questions about water's existence. The three questions are philosophically fundamental, with roots in Socratic, Platonic, and Cartesian thinking. The three answers were scientifically accurate: the wave equation (answers #1 and #3) describes the spatial pattern of any water waves in relation to their temporal movements; H2O (answer #2) captures the components and structure of any water molecule. Made from fully biodegradable materials, the print will not cause any harm to the water or the lives inhabiting it.

The artist invites the viewers to take a print with them and hand it to a body of water.
