To search for life beyond Earth, scientists “follow the water.” On our own planet, it is the foundation of biological life, and, in an age when almost no job can exist without data, it cools the servers that sustain our digital reality. It is also one of the most destructive forces we know. Photographically, the challenge of representing water lies in its multiformity and its presence at every conceivable scale. Its color shifts with the light it reflects, its shape with the mold that contains it, its power rests in perpetual movement. To visualize water is an attempt to distill its vastness, its force, its elusiveness, and its necessity into still images.
