Electronics people! Please help!

I’ve got a Panasonic Viera TX47AS650B and I think it might be water damaged

It’s got a bar down the middle that looks darker than the rest of the screen and it’s kind of flickering across the left hand side of the screen up to where the bar is this is the side that was exposed to the water. 

I’ve unplugged it to let it dry but I was wondering if it would be able to be repaired and how much it is likely to cost?

Memento Mori
Borondo

www.yardpress.it

Memento Mori comes from the need of Borondo to fix in a book what has been, in order to continue with what it will be: in this book the artist lets us discover himself in complete freedom and honesty, opening the doors of his archive and showing an unknown part of his work, which represents indeed the heart of all his artistic production: the research. Sketches, drafts, photographic references, all produced by the artist himself and collected during those last years. Photos taken all along his travels and on the roads he walked on, or by who walked by his side. All the volume tells us about Borondo’s creative process and artistic work, since the beginnings until 2014, also trough four essays by Edoardo Sassi, Simone Pallotta, Carmen Main and James Buxton.
A book that is connected to the street, and to what the street has represented for this artist: the freedom and the opportunity to base his life on art, and to show it to all of us. The edition is produced and coedited by Chiara Caprasecca and Chiara Pietropaoli.
