blue tide, black water
Amid an ocean of wax one might chance upon a garden of flowering chemicals
BLUE TIDE, BLACK WATER is an investigation into the world's minute reactions. One of the most basic of chemical interactions, heat applied to liquids, is transformed from a scientific investigation to a study of the intricate details of the natural world. The resulting microcosmic environment seems a lush, rich primordial soup.
