“Water Damage depicts a tableau of salvaged items from the River Seine in Paris.
Made decrepit by time; cafe chairs, city bikes, and scooters, are strewn along the banks of the river. Long forgotten by their users, they serve as a monument to the residue of our actions, and remind us how a city can remember, what we have long forgotten.”
