The famous Blue Lagoon has been transformed in the first part of Transaquania into a magical new world. Out of the blue waters, new life forms were born, a civilization rapidly evolved. Transaquania - Into Thin Air now explores a distant future of this species. All water has disappeared from the Earth’s surface. What is left is only a dry memory. Existence has now become a poetic struggle for life. The chameleon-like philosophy of Transaquania - Into Thin Air explores the very fragile balance and interaction between life and its environmental conditions, as well as the thin thread between the chemical, the physical and the poetical.
