"Fountain Head," an art installation by Seyed Alavi in Walnut Creek, CA (in slow motion).

ARTIST'S STATEMENT: "This piece, located along Main Street in Walnut Creek, CA, plays with the idea of water as the source of life, and the human being as the fountainhead. Historically, fountains played a vital role in the life of a village, community or neighborhood, as they supplied the water necessary for people's daily activities. In this respect, fountains were a hub and a gathering place for the local community. As a result, fountains have become associated both as the source and the center of community/ daily life. In celebration of the life that they helped to sustain, fountains became more and more elaborate and were adorned with various figures, objects, and icons, often representative of various myths and folklore.

In order to create a humorous and symbolic composition, the water in this fountain is designed to jet out from the top of the head, from the place commonly known as the "soft spot" or Fontanel (French word for Fountain). Coincidentally, this point, in both Western (Greek) and Eastern (Indian) culture and mythology is associated with Wisdom. The crown chakra in Indian philosophy, is seen as the well from which intuitive knowledge is drawn. In Greek mythology, it is believed that Athena was born fully formed out of Zeus's head. She is known as the goddess of wisdom, inspiration, and civilization. In addition, the color gold is often, and almost universally, associated with solar symbolism, which gives gold such attributes as: life, vitality, and wisdom.

Upon learning of these references, I found it curious that in English, the word fountainhead, is used to mean both the source and also the point where the water comes out in a fountain. Thus the piece was designed to represent the head of a human with water jetting out from the very top of it. The size of this head, which is quite large in relation to the size of the fountain, was chosen in order to create a jarring effect, but at the same time a whimsical, playful and humorous contrast. I also wanted a work that would welcoming and would be visible/ experienced not only by people on foot, but also by the vehicular traffic. I have sought to create a sculpture that will be complex and profound, at the same time that it is fun, humorous, child friendly and accessible to the public at large.

I could not resist filming this empty tube carriage travelling between Lambeth North and Elephant and Castle. Weird thing is empty tube carriages are quite creepy, and I wanted to do this video to convey this feeling, I quite liked the background noise

This movie is an experiment with light - shadow of leaves in the wind and rippling reflecting on a stone wall. I was quite pleased with the dynamism at play here as it was quite medititave and hypnotic.

The river that flows under my toungue,
The water no one imagines, my little boat,
And with the curtains drawn, let's talk.
