The temporal condition of water is represented here for this Bath House building site. Three glass photographic panels depict its solid, liquid, and vapor states. Each panel presents a close-up image of a “condition” of water. Just as the seasonal use of the pool marks change, “Conditional Reflections” provides a meditation on the elusive nature of water. Concrete cylindrical seats are arranged according to the molecular structure of each corresponding condition of water.
