Slow Water, The Blue Barrel and more!
In continuation of the Unmute Magazine theme — States Of Water, last month the blog saw some interesting pieces on the same. From using water as a central element of design to questioning the political implications of urban water centres — Anne Feenstra, Siddeshwari Ambekar, Tejas Chauhan amongst others engage in though provoking narratives around water.
