Rain Catcher was made for an exhibition called Aquifer. Smith-Bügge’s Andean childhood memories include the wooden troughs that brought water down the mountainside to the Indian villages. The angled hollow apple wood creates the illusion of water falling into the ceramic bowl, an ancient method of carrying water. The copper uprights represent contemporary ways of directing water into modern homes.
