Moses Hacmon (born 29 October 1977) is an Israeli artist, architect, and author.
Education
Hacmon studied cinematography and fine art at the Avni Institute of Art and Design and attended the Technion – Israel Institute of Technology. In 2006, he completed his Bachelor of Architecture, with the AIA honors award, from the Southern California Institute of Architecture.[1]
Career
Hacmon's art emerged as a result of ten years of research on water and he has since committed his life to sharing information and educating people on this. The focus of his findings is based on his belief that water is the source of consciousness. In 2013, he discovered the technique he uses to capture images of water that are invisible to the naked eye.[2] His studies expand on Masaru Emoto's teachings on the molecular structure of water and how it reacts to metaphysical stimuli, most notably found in his work The Hidden Messages in Water. Hacmon has turned his photographs into installations in order to demonstrate his findings and display in galleries.
Faces of Water
Faces of Water was Hacmon's first project that was released in 2013.[3] It is the debut of his technique that captures water's invisible forms.[4][5] Wired Magazine says "Hacmon worked out technique involving a special type of film with a layer of liquid [film] that records the movement of the water itself. The film leaves Hacmon with a full-size negative, which he then develops into pictures like the ones here–an analog process from start to finish."[2] The photos show the faces of water, showing it as an architect of nature. Newbery and the Carnegie medal award-winning author Neil Gaiman said about the photos "Immediate thoughts involve not drinking water any longer because it has eyes and is obviously sentient…"[6]
Cymatics
Hacmon employs cymatics in his works that use water to visualize sound waves. He has worked with Mark Dresser, an American double bass player and composer, to link sound to its visualization in water.[7] Using the technique Hacmon developed, they set up performances with Dresser's bass hooked up to the water and created a feedback loop where Dresser influenced the water which in turn influenced his playing. The entire performance was improvised, playing on the idea of the natural stream of consciousness not only within a single being but between the water outside of us and the water inside of us.
