Zuzana Baková – and she said, it loops when you’re not looking
by Zuzana Baková
Water distribution and the infrastructure responses devised for the transmission of its stream, such as irrigation canals, artificial rivers, holding reservoirs, hydroelectric dams, etc., are reframed through the formal attitude of circular sculpture, containing water. A discourse on the control over, allocation of, and access to the resource. Circular shapes and motions allude to temporal constructs such as loops, time capsules, and atemporality. Time and space are treated as variables in this equation.
