Keeping the surface constantly damp allows the artist to move pigments around and in between the edges to exemplify the abstract nature of water. Moon views this symbolic exchange as a purification. Allowing the paint to submerge in the multitude of forms creates a boundless surface that occupies space but fails to change it fundamentally. Moon uses this theme in explaining the significance of water and its teachings.
Moon states " Water cleanses stains and grows life. The cycle of water connects the sky and the earth. Water, the beginning of life with its holy nature. I treasure water the most"
