« all this was once covered in water est un gros plan de l’eau d’une rivière lors d’une journée ensoleillée. Il y a beaucoup de reflets sur sa surface. L’eau devient progressivement plus bleu et foncé, pour que finalement les reflets suggèrent des étoiles ou constellations. La vidéo fait un lien entre le monde inférieur des eaux et le monde supérieur des étoiles, quant à la cartographie. C’est également un rappel des mondes intérieurs: d’où nous avons débuté et la connexion avec où nous retournerons. » - Hannah Claus
L’artiste tient à remercier Initiative for Indigenous Futures (IIF), un projet d'Aboriginal Territories in Cyberspace (AbTeC) et Milieux - Institute for Arts, Culture and Technology de l'Université Concordia.

« all this was once covered in water is a closeup of river water on a sunny day with many sparkles on its surface; the water turns progressively bluer and darker, so that the sparkles finally suggest stars or constellations. The video makes a connection between the lower world of the waters and the upper world of the stars, as relates to their relationship in cartography. It is also a reminder of interior worlds: where we came from and the connection to where we will return. » - Hannah Claus
The artist would like to than the Initiative for Indigenous Futures (IIF), a project of Aboriginal Territories in Cyberspace (ATeC) and Milieux Institute for Arts Culture and technology at Concordia University.
