A merced de las olas / Tecnalia/AZTI
Hasan Elahi tries to establish bridges between the scientific community and society with the presentation of a work in two pieces based on an oceanographic study of the Bay of Biscay. Using calculations furnished by AZTI, he threw bottles at a specific point into the sea so that, due to the currents, they would arrive at Zumaia beach at a previously determined place and time. The same bottles that made their journey with the help of the waves are exhibited within an installation that alludes to the saline levels of the oceans.
