Title:
Bernoulli Equation For Unsteady Potential Flow
Creator:
Nabarra-Piomelli, Amandine
Description:
Artist's book comprised of a sequence of strips of photos which represents the nature and meaning of water, traditionally associated with the qualities of emotion and intuition. Eighty-one strips of pigmented digital prints, printed on Epson Premium Luster Paper, are arranged as a palm leaf book, sewn with thread through the body of the book, intended to be manipulated to allow pages to fall. The image of a swimmer is shown by the falling pages of the book. The wavy patterns of each strip, as well as the book as a whole when extended, suggest the flow of waves on the surface of the ocean, described in mathematical theory by Bernoulli's equation for unsteady potential flow. Issued in a limited edition of 6 copies.
