Starting from a localized ecological phenomenon, the artist explores water scarcity and climate disaster from multiple perspectives. Using freshwater data from Bangalore, India (2000–2022), the artist creates an immersive media installation that connects regional realities with the global climate emergency. It builds a technological and emotional bridge between time and space, turning data into a narrative experience.

Continuing the visual language of her ongoing “Sustainability Series,” the artist treats data not as something passive to be displayed but as a living structure that can sense and respond. She creates a virtual watercycle system where blue particles represent water molecules, forming lakes, rivers, and flows. These particles change in number, color, direction, and speed over time, controlled by gravity algorithms and accurate environmental data. The dancer’s gestures, captured in real-time through motion-tracking technology, intervene directly within the particle system. Here, the body functions not merely as an interface for control but as an active variable within the data ecology—participating in a feedback loop that coconstructs the dynamic vitality of the environment. Climate data is thus translated into a form of perceptual energy—capable of being remembered, felt, and re-inscribed—embedding narrative threads into the audience’s collective consciousness and awakening both memory and agency.

In this artwork, the image is no longer just a reflection of nature but a reconstruction shaped by machine perception. Water becomes a resource and a visual language created by a technical system after the artist shares the concept and process with ChatGPT. The AI-generated the title Lakeside Echo / 数据深潭, which reflects the deep connection between humans, water, nature, and the planet.
