"Deep down shallow water" is an installation work that employs bookbinding gauze, shredded dictionary parts and video. The installation consists of five layers of bookbinding gauze, each with shredded dictionary parts accumulated on them. The projection light features a video of snowflakes drifting away, gradually descending from the top to the bottom layer of the gauze. The accompanying sound component resembles that of a damp basement or cave.

The objective of the artwork is to portray the world's defining element being torn into fragments and gradually losing its source of illumination until it sinks into the depths of the water.
