• Wholly H2o believes in coming at the issue of wise water use from as many sides as usefully possible.  One invaluable side is that of art.  You’ll notice that we have an art gallery on the bottom right side of our main landing page.  When the Wholly H2o Center opens in San Francisco, we’ll host monthly art shows in the space, in addition to water resue products, demonstration systems, books, and an educational forum space.

    In the meantime, here is a simple but direct image that asks us to consider how we use water. (Click the link to see the image of the art peice.)

    Here, the artist is asking us to reflect on our dependent relationship with essential commodities. What he’s really asking, is how you would react if water wasn’t just there and easy, but locked and hard to get. Influences from his long stays in Africa intertwine with outrage at the wasteful consumerist society, and the superficiality is evoked powerfully by the stains that spread around at the mere though of rationing.
