Kidnapping Water: Bottled Operas is a study on the movement of water using four-channel acoustic recordings and 104 LED lights. Miniature spotlights produce animated light patterns, illuminating a circular reef of salt that appears to float in the darkened gallery.
The installation was produced in collaboration with composer Byron Au Yong and a team of 8 librettists, 4 singers, and 4 percussionists.
