CUPS

The Landscape of Elemental Water

Imagine the feeling of water in all its forms: chilly ice, silky mist, buoyant saltwater, vapid clouds, crystal-clear pools. Cups are art, ideas, and emotions. The kingdom of water rules our feelings. Emotions move and change as quickly as water. It is the transformative world of pain, joy, sorrow, love, and every emotion in between.
