# Water Movement Sculptural Instruments The Inner Waves Installation is a Musical Light Show By Amy Duong | Published 2024-02-24 | Art & Design Source: Trend Hunter, https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/inner-waves References: [yankodesign](https://www.yankodesign.com/2024/02/23/mesmerizing-sculptural-instrument-uses-water-for-an-otherworldly-musical-light-show/) & [arturweber](https://www.arturweber.com/)  Artur Weber is behind the Inner Waves art installation, which is a unique structural instrument that interacts with [glowing water](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/ripple-light) and drums. It invites visitors to play with the drums of water to create their own hypnotic [audiovisual experiences](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/psychoacoustic-light-ensemble). It is a combination of drums that are arranged in a random circular structure. As the name suggests, the smaller drums hold water and unlike a traditional water drum, it has a slight glow. The intention behind the installation is to ease the mind and put it in a more [meditative state](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/sonic-heirloom) by forming a deeper connection through sound and vibration. It means to link the water inside of the viewer's body with the water in the drum vessel.
