Ooze ( /uːz/) : dripping and seeping, the slow infiltration of a liquid matter.
An evening walk in drizzling rain and skin excreting sweat are both materiality of water as well as microplastics in an ocean or a lake eutrophicated by phosphorus.
Water dissolves photo ink from the surface of the picture as if something other than the view represented by the picture would be revealed behind the ink and paper. Water causes disruption and mutation, first it removes the magenta from the picture and leaves it with an unnaturally beautiful blue.
