The name of the city of Sopot comes from a rustling brook. There are fourteen streams in Sopot, which flow in secret under the city. Currently, only a few are visible, flowing freely in a fast flow. One of them, the Karlikowski Stream in the Świemirowska Valley, falls out rapidly from under the street with a mini waterfall and flows into a pond. The surface of its water constantly reflects images changing like in a kaleidoscope. They surprise and fascinate at different times of the day and at night, when the lights of the city lamps are reflected in the water. These magical moving images, like a 36 views of Mount Fuji by Hiroshige Ando, the creator of "images of the floating world", are a pretext for artistic play with the imagination. An encouragement to constantly renew attempts to create unambiguous symbols which synthetically describe these phenomena.
