When asked to create
artworks for The
Loren at Pink Beach,
photographer, Robert
Curran, chose to
reference the sharp
volcanic rocks that
shaped Bermuda’s
singular legacy
of piracy and the
ephemeral quality
of the seawater
upon them.These
photographs,taken in
proximity to the hotel
in full light at 1/800 of
a second capture the
dancing droplets that
are in the air— faster
than the eye can see
them, giving each
photograph a unique
interpretation of the
ocean’s energy.
Influenced by
Da Vinci’s passion
for symmetry, the
photographs are
then mirrored into
each other, giving
each viewer a unique
combined image
in much the same
way psychological
exams were
performed by
Robert

Hermann Rorschach
in the 1960s.
The controversial
tests were
employed to detect
underlying disorders
through the analysis
of the viewer’s
experience, the
most common
being faces or other
anthropomorphic
forms that are
experienced uniquely
by each viewer.
