wellbeing through water
Dive in and be enchanted by the beauty and magic of water:
Imagine you are sitting on the beach. In front of you stretches the endless expanse of the ocean. The sun is high on the horizon and makes the turquoise blue water sparkle.
You let your gaze wander over the water and contemplate the majestic waves. Each wave is unique in its appearance and movement. You watch as they slowly build, gain height, glide ashore with a gentle splash, and finally dissolve into delicate whitecaps.
The harmonious melody and rhythmic movements of the waves lead you into a meditative state that carries your thoughts away. You let yourself be enchanted by this spectacle. You feel your mind come to rest. The worries of everyday life fade away as you stay completely in the moment and enjoy the incomparable beauty of the sea to the fullest.
Water possesses positive qualities, making it an ideal element for creating calming environments.
Its ability to captivate our attention without inducing fatigue is remarkable. The constant changes, rhythmic sounds, and the play of light on the water surface can divert our minds from everyday thoughts, bringing us into a state of undirected attention.
Moreover, it's not essential to be near natural water to experience these benefits. Even representations of water, such as images or sounds, can have a calming and stress-reducing effect. This is especially important in healthcare settings, where medical institutions often bring worries and emotional stress to patients.
Recognizing this, the ambition of 'awave' is to create an atmosphere of relaxation within healthcare facilities. The installation leverages the benefits of water to enhance the ambiance and provide a calming retreat, ultimately making visits to medical practices or clinics more comfortable and promoting stress reduction and anxiety relief.
