Story by Artist: Victor
You see an iconic image of a water bottle which is scaled up to emphasise the weight it carries in this image, also because of using iconic images of objects I am able to choose different colours without loosing the recognisably of them which results in a sort of surreal environment, you wonder what universe this is from. The water bottle itself is shown as almost a living, breathing machine that serves different functions but yet needs action and resources to be able to serve its purpose.
It shows that water is not only simply up for grabs. The glass dome gives the object, which normally is seen as something that is not scarce, something precious, like it sits in a museum or a lab. it is to be protected from harm because it is not that common for everyone.
