The Blue Wave

Down to the Water

[Translate to English:] © Foto: www.loxpix.com

Blue glass stones, set into the granite paving, lead directly from the waterfront into the city centre.

These seemingly randomly arranged glass stones symbolise the element of water and begin at the River ‘Melk’.

They lead to Melk's Town Hall Square, where the unique art project ends in front of the Kolomani Fountain, linking to the Golden Stairs.

In addition to the route, the project conveys a meditative message. This is conveyed in the form of Morse code.

Approximate Translation of the Message in Morse Code:

 

The message of the Blue Wave

 

Out of the water
brought to light
Gathering experience from the
first moment on
Unfolding along the way
in meaningful being
Until the light changes
and the wave ebbs away


I awake into the day
and want to be a bright being
I feel into the day
and want to be a happy being
I run into the day
and want to be a strong being
I dance into the day
and want to be carried by you
I love into the day
and want to be safe with you
