THE EXHIBIT
This exhibit – dedicated to the beauty of water and its importance in our future - is designed to elevate awareness of ocean conservation efforts and sustainability, and the ongoing efforts being made to preserve it. Through this installation, we aim to bring awareness to the larger conversation surrounding Miami’s ocean ecosystems, and our impact on preserving the precious source of life that water is, during this important event.
Presented in partnership with the The City of Miami, and ocean preservation organization Blue Action, this exhibit underscores these organizations' shared commitment to sustainability, with each location articulating the unique relationship that connects viewers to the nature of water and its universal presence. This thoughtfully curated installation engages the viewer in a dialogue about the fragility of our environment while celebrating water as a timeless and unifying force.
INTERACTIVE QR CODE
A feature of the exhibit will be a live QR code presented alongside the visual display. This QR code will connect directly to the conservation initiatives involved, providing viewers with detailed information about critical conservation programs that need support, attention, and awareness. By engaging with the QR code, viewers will become part of the larger effort to bring actionable awareness to ocean conservation, linking their experience at the exhibit to real-world impact.
WATERFORMS is not just an exhibit, it is a call to action. It asks us to consider water not only as a resource but as an ever-present force that shapes our world, and our shared future. In its movement and flow, viewers will find an invitation to connect – with the work, with each other, and with the element that sustains us all.
ARTIST STATEMENT

ARTIST STATEMENT *
Amphora Projects, examines the beauty and expression of water as both subject and medium. Our work focuses on immersive, aqua-kinetic video installations that capture water in ultra high frame-rate slow motion, revealing a previously unseen world of energy and transformation.
At the core of our work is the belief that “through observing the nature of water, we reveal our own.” Water’s expressive, interdependent movement serves as a mirror to human experience – dynamic, interconnected, constantly evolving, and limited only within the boundaries of the space and time it occupies.
Through this approach, we create art that invites reflection, interaction, and shared discovery, emphasizing the inextricable relationship between water and human life – inviting the viewer to see water much like we all are – as pure beauty in motion.

CITY OF MIAMI
In Miami, the connection between the ocean and the local community are inseparable. The health of Biscayne Bay, the Miami River, and our surrounding Ocean is critical to Miami’s economy, sustainability and quality of life.
Every day new environmental challenges emerge that threaten Miami’s special connection with the ocean. Fortunately, when it matters most, Floridians are resilient and come together to find ways to protect their home.
