WaterWork Installation at Seaholm Intake

Through projection mapping technology, the historic Seaholm Intake Facility façade transformed into a canvas of art, light, and motion. WaterWork, an immersive art experience by The Trail Conservancy and Design Austin, was a first-of-its-kind projection celebrating the dynamic between the urban environment and the natural landscape and the many talents of Austin’s creative community. Artists and designers were asked to create short videos exploring the city’s coexistence with nature in the heart of downtown. The immersive display debuted at dusk on Thursday, September 12 and Tuesday, September 17.

This piece serves as a reflection on the growth of our city and the parallel paths of personal development. As we navigate our urban environment, we are surrounded by a tapestry of street art, glimpses of nature, the ever-present hum of construction, pollution, and the relentless flow of advertising and vehicles. Through this visual narrative, I aim to provoke thought on how the rhythm of urban life intertwines with our internal growth, underscoring the impact of our environment on our sense of identity place.
