The installation plays with the associations of blue textile material; its gloss, softness, quality, shape, measurements, which may remind of the water, of the sea. The viewer walks by, touches the installation and makes it move. He makes a wave which slowly stops, disappears. At eye-level it is possible to see the surface. The installation also offers a look under it. It is possible to see what no one can see normally, the hidden life under water. However, this view is very different than everyone expects. It is not the same as what we see under water when diving. The water does not deform the things, does not transform them. We see the same thing as above water. We see the surface. It is unexpected. It turns us upside down. Above one’s head we see the same what we saw from the view above. It is alarming but at the same time captivating. Inštalácia sa pohráva s asociáciou modrej látky, jej leskami, mäkkosťou, rozlohou, mierkou a tvarom, ktoré vytvárajú dojem morskej hladiny. Človek, divák idúci okolo, rozvlní povrch, vytvorí vlnu, ktorá jemne a pomaly ustáva. Vo výške očí vidíme modrú hladinu. Inštalácia však ponúka aj pohľad pod hladinu. Je možné vidieť to, čo je očiam obvykle skryté, neprístupné. Avšak tento obraz nie je taký istý ako pod reálnou vodnou hladinou, voda ho neláme a netransformuje. Vidíme to isté, čo aj zhora. Je to nečakané. Tento pohľad prevracia našu existenciu hore nohami. Nad hlavou vidíme to isté, čo sme predtým videli dole pod nami. Ten pohľad znepokojuje aj očarúva zároveň.
