At its core, the installation employs paint not just as a medium for aesthetics but as a catalyst for movement, imagination, and play.

Inspired by the notion of a "sunken pool"—a metaphorical and visual device—the painted patterns create an illusion of depth, topography, and fluidity, inviting children to explore, jump, trace, and invent their own games.

The intervention extends beyond passive observation; it activates the playground through a series of structured and open-ended activities that encourage physical engagement, storytelling, and collective play.

By reimagining the playground as a dynamic, interactive surface, A Sunken Pool challenges traditional notions of play areas. The painted forms do not dictate a single use but instead offer an evolving landscape that responds to the creativity of those who inhabit it. In doing so, the project underscores the power of simple, low-tech interventions in reshaping communal spaces and fostering spontaneous interaction.
