Amphora Projects, the creative collaboration between Frankie Batista and Aaron Alden, examines the beauty and expression of water as both subject and medium. Our work focuses on immersive, aqua-kinetic video installations that capture water in ultra high frame-rate slow motion, revealing a previously unseen world of energy and transformation.

At the core of our work is the belief that “through observing the nature of water, we reveal our own.” Water’s expressive, interdependent movement serves as a mirror to human experience - dynamic, interconnected, constantly evolving, and limited only within the boundaries of the space and time it occupies.

By integrating layers of user responsive technology and elements of chance into the work, we create environments that actively interact with and evolve with the presence of the viewer - merging art and audience within a living, dynamic exchange, each transforming the experience for the other. Much like life, this work is not just to be observed - It is to experience, and to shape the experience as well.

Through this approach, we create art that invites reflection, interaction, and shared discovery, emphasizing the inextricable relationship between water and human life - inviting the viewer to see water much like we all are - as pure beauty in motion.
