This is a great book not only because the art project is amazing and both the pictures and the editing are beautiful, but also, and mostly (at least for people involved with creation), because it allows you to follow step by step the various ideas and images that appear during the creative process. The artist generously shares her path and thus we get involved in the investigation of water as a visual and symbolic subject; we go from an object to a space and a meaning; we participate in the technical details and finally witness the result: a work of ephemeral art that stands in the memory and the book we are looking at, since it has already melted.
