Everything seems quiet. The visitor is surrounded by blue light and enchanting music. A line of monitors placed close to each other show the repeated and strained strokes of a swimmer as they swim tirelessly from screen to screen.

This installation was created by placing twelve cameras right on the water’s surface at the edge of a swimming pool. With repeated and strained effort, the swimmer crosses every screen. A hundred micro-events – a ball falling down, an anchor sinking…– become part of the main scene even though they are confined to single screens. This variation of events compels the viewer to directly take part in the installation. This is therefore the first example of what will become the main feature of Studio Azzurro’s work. The viewer is not just there to witness what is happening, but instead they actively participate in a specific moment that will never happen in the exact same way again.
