POOL is a series of underwater photographs taken across the United States, documenting the country from the bottom of its swimming pools, looking up at the sky.

Pools are iconic—a place of leisure and carefree enjoyment, often associated with fun and luxury. However, they also highlight the environmental concerns tied to sustainability and resource consumption. This duality makes them a captivating subject.

Ovid’s fable of Narcissus offers a timeless exploration of self-absorption and its consequences. At the core of the story is a reflective pool, a mirror-like surface that lures Narcissus into the depths of his own image. MarieVic’s project gives voice to Narcissus' reflection, exploring this theme across the United States.

The series presents a distorted reality that amplifies the unsettling effects of consumerism on the American landscape, revealing a world that operates by its own set of rules.
