The sound of water says what I think.

In the meditative “Water” series, Alexander Grawoig embarks on an exploration of tranquility, physicality, and spiritual flow. These paintings are conceived as vessels to quiet the mind, immerse the senses, and invite a deeper connection with one’s inner self and the natural world.

Employing materials such as gesso and concrete, the artist crafts unconscious, organic textures. By allowing paint to flow naturally within the cracks and creases of these surfaces, the resulting works evoke the unstructured beauty of nature. This technique mirrors the unpredictable yet harmonious patterns found in the natural world, encouraging viewers to let their minds wander and discover silent, ever-evolving patterns.

The “Water” series was featured in the artist’s first solo exhibition in 2023 in Mexico City. This exhibition expanded on the immersive concept through a meticulously designed 9-speaker audio installation. Cascading recordings of moving water enveloped the space, creating varying patterns and tones scientifically proven to soothe the mind. The auditory experience was further enhanced by the artist’s live improvisation on acoustic guitar, utilizing one speaker for pure reverb to let the guitar’s hollow resonance fill the gallery. This multisensory installation transformed the gallery into a sanctuary of quiet reflection.
