<Ripples in Mind>

My project exploring the positive impact of water on mental well-being through the lens of flow psychology. Using high-quality materials like viscose and monofilament, I aim to connect individuals with nature, promote self-awareness, and encourage self-acceptance. Techniques such as drop glue technology are employed, with future considerations for eco-friendly alternatives. The primary audience is those dealing with mild to moderate anxiety and depression, offering a unique therapeutic experience.

This project stems from my habit of involuntarily contemplating water ripples, leading to reflections on recent events, emotions, and new self-awareness. These contemplative moments contribute to increased calmness and acceptance of my shortcomings. Curious about this phenomenon, I explore whether connecting with nature can similarly induce relaxation for others.
