The comments on the last idea about Holy Water were:

• Is the water running or still? (Some said running would be preferable because the role of the water is cleansing)
• Is the pipe covered with something?
• spotlights will be good.

Considering these things, here is the new idea of Holy Water.

The existing drainage pipe is covered with imitation ivy, which is painted black. Down the mouth of the pipe will be laid a flow of plaster indicating Holy Water. White color of the pipe and plaster shows continuity of the flow of Holy Water or qi. The form, texture, and B&W color are simple and chic and will not interfere in the other installations.

We will not use real water, and the water from the sink will be kept turned off during the installation. This sculpture is an indication of water and not water itself. The plaster will be mixed with water and installed before the beginning of the installation.

What we need are:

• imitation ivy: $20-30
• black spray paint: $2
• fine wire to tie the ivy to the pipe: $2
• plaster (16lb): $10

$40-50 in total

What do you think?

There are already some tin sheets down the drainage. They can be used for the holy water.

What if we cast light from above them? The light may be placed on the plattform where the broken AC sits or on the wall. If an extra projector is available, that would be good, but just regular lights would work well. Reflected light on the water would be nice. We can make the tin sheets look better by trimming the edges.

Yesterday’s crits were:

• be simple
• the crack already represents ooze, so the holy water doesn’t need to do that
• (glass plates or metal bucket are possible solution)

The idea mentioned above would match these things.

What do you think of this?
