An architectural installation creating a space within a space. The two gently curving walls have small 10cm holes from which 2cm-diameter jets of water are emitted to connect the two walls. The intense stream of water flows almost horizontally for 3 meters, enabling viewers to visually experience both speed and the law of gravity.
