通过使用传感器，该装置与潮汐变化产生了相互作用；在涨潮时，三条光带将被同时激活。这个装置能够帮助人们想象未来某一时刻内海平面的位置，从而对气候变暖做出相应的措施。

By the use of sensors, the installation interacts with the rising tidal changes; activating three synchronized light lines by the high tide. The work helps us to imagine the future sea level rise in undefined period of time, depending on our actions towards the climate warming.

该装置探讨了人类与自然之间的关系可能造成灾难性后果及其长期影响。同时，该装置也引起了人们的思考，即海平面上升在未来将会如何影响沿海地区的发展、以及沿海地区居民的生活和土地的使用等。

The installation explores the catastrophic impact of our relationship with nature and its long term effects. The work provokes a dialogue on how the rising sea levels will affect coastal areas, its inhabitants and land usage in the future.

本装置对于低洼式群岛，如苏格兰西海岸之外的外赫布里底群岛（Outer Hebrides）内的尤伊特斯岛（Uist）等，以及本装置的所在地——Lochmaddy内的Taigh Chearsabhag博物馆兼艺术中心有着极为重要的意义。因为鉴于已经预测到的海洋风暴潮，该艺术中心已经不能再在其现有的基地上继续发展了。

This is specifically relevant in the low lying island archipelagos like the of Uist in the Outer Hebrides off the west coast of Scotland, and in particular to Taigh Chearsabhagh Museum & Arts Centre in Lochmaddy where the installation is situated. The centre cannot develop on its existing site due to predicted storm surge sea.
