Vancouver Biennale No 3 Freezing Water HDR 08b June 19 2010

Freezing Water #7 by Jun Ren (China). Located near the entrance to False Creek in Vanier Park Vancouver this sculpture is meant to represent "liquid water or mercury stopped in motion that revealed its shape as a drop or spill caught in the air." For me, each time I see this beautiful work I can't help thinking about the curious and friendly water creature on the 1989 James Cameron epic underwater flick "The Abyss".
