“Watching the water, I am stricken with vertigo of meaning. Water is the final conjugation: an infinity of form, relation, and content. (I never know where I’m standing when I’m standing by the river).”

These words, written by Roni Horn (New York, USA, 1955), are part of the broad commentary that makes up Still Water (The River Thames, for Example), 1999, photographs with text that make up the series to which the six works in the collection belong. Interested in the waters of the River Thames, which are as cryptic as an obscure language that can contain a multiplicity of meanings, Horn shot numerous photos that capture aspects of the water not easily seen by the naked eye.
