The Weeping Tap – A kinetic sculpture
Crying is both universal and deeply personal, a shared human experience that flows from the private depths of our being.
A tear can hold the weight of unspeakable sorrow or the seed of transformation. Sometimes, crying reveals new possibilities. Other times, it leads us to act. And at times, it simply mirrors the heaviness of a reality too immense to bear, offering no solace.
This sculpture reflects a convergence of personal grief and collective pain, an infinite loop of sorrow that drips endlessly, uncontainable and unrelenting. The tap cries eternal tears—a perpetual stream of anguish that cannot be turned off. Each tear follows another, slipping away down the drain, a reminder of both release and loss.
Sometimes, we yearn to hide our pain, to lock away our thoughts and feelings. But when the agony becomes infinite, there is no escape. All we can do is cry.
