"To Function In His Fullest Scope, Man Must Restore The Unity Of His Experiences So That He Can Register Sensory, Emotional And Intellectual Dimensions Of The Present In An Indivisible Whole." [Kepes] The objective of this thesis will be to begin to formalize an artist's inquiry into the development of environments that promote creative interaction. The term "creative interaction" as it will be used within the context of this thesis refers to a dynamic relationship in which an individual(s) responds to the environment with a well integrated sense of exploration, introspection and regard. Waterworks swim through sculptures are intended to encourage the development of an awareness of alternative ways of relating to space. By presenting the participant-viewer with new possibilities for spatial interaction, it is proposed that the environment will stimulate a sense of exploration. By enhancing feedback to the participant viewer , it is proposed that the sculpture will provide the opportunity for reflect ion and introspection. Through facilitating new found awareness, it is hoped that the environment will foster a sense of regard that extends beyond immediate self-concern. by Uriel Levi.
