However, this piece presents terms, music, and images which attempt to capture water (a particularly important part of the ecology) through an aesthetic lens, rather than a social or political one. However, it also self-consciously highlights the gap between the intrinsic beauty of water (or nature in general), and the incapability of humans to fully or wholly capture it.

I took 24 pictures in 24 minutes and tried to capture emotion on the faces of my subjects. I then used 24 different songs to capture the 24 different emotions in each picture. This way I could express what I felt each subject was feeling in every picture and show it the rest of the world.
