During our visit to the area of Sultans Pool we found a blue water can. Because this area used to be a water reservoir we decided to install a simulated waterfall by using water cans. After we planed this piece of work the exhibition was postponed for one year. In this time a friend informed us about a catalogue where the work of the scottish artist Ron O´Donnel was published. In a gallery in 1990, he had shown a waterfall made out of water cans. That is what you call “Künstlerpech" e.g. bad luck for the artist. We wrote to Ron because we thought it was interesting and also a bit mystirious that somebody worked similar to us. For this reason we are now thinking about what we can form with the “material" water cans. For instance a huge wave, a water whirl or an iceberg.
