The hydro electric power plant painting

 

I tried to express the idea of gravity with the weight of this great bulbous hanging water tank which is connected to the sea. The water comes gushing in from all over the word and collects in the tank before it slowly drips down through a tiny hole, causing the water wheel to spin, which causes an electric motor to generate electricity, which powers the lightbulb that lights up the under ground room with a single chair. I don’t know why there’s only one chair, or why it’s so far under the weight of the sea. Perhaps I just needed a convenient purpose for the power that could come from the motor. It’s incredibly interesting that you can either power a motor to make it spin, or spin a motor to make it give power. I remember vividly, in my youth, I once had a plastic kit for an electric motor, that you could put together. Miraculous machines they are indeed.
