PSYCHOLOGICLY WATER SYMBOLIZES EMOTIONS:
From wikipedia:
Water is one of the four classical elements in ancient Greek philosophy and science. It was commonly associated with the qualities of emotion and intuition.
This is concept that inspires me a lot. The connection between water and emotions.
I wrote a text in Pyhäjärvi and I would like to share some of it with you:
" I´m lying on a tiny pier floating on Pyhäjärvi-lake thinking about water symbolizing emotions. The waves are making the pier move under me and I´m thinking: why is it that I don´t want to swim but I actually want to dive? What does it tell about me?
I love water but I´m also afraid of it. This reminds me of the fact that when I dive emotionally with someone I immediately start to be afraid that the person will abandon me. I dive with great pleasure but I´m afraid that it´s too much for the other person. It´s hard to find the trust. As hard as it has been for me to trust that I will not drown when I´m under water
It´s windy and I´m turning myself against the breeze. I´m on the level of the surface of the water waiting for the right moment to dive."

While travelling I saw some photos of the work of Nils-Udo on Air France magazine. Installations made into the nature. They might inspire you too. Here´s one website where there´s a description of his work:
