I Remember Water. A Global Digital Exhibition Exploring Memories of Our Relationship With Water - Water Museums
Water museums archive the memories of humanity’s relationship with water. For this reason,
members of the Global Network of Water Museums are invited to contribute to a curated digital
exhibition that shares their memories of our relationship with water, to be launched on World
Water Day 2022.
Water museums around the world are public repositories of our fluid heritage. However, if we are to
address our global water challenges then we need to find new ways to connect people to their
water heritage and to museums so that we can build empathy with a new ‘culture of water’, and
stimulate water wisdom.
Water memories, whether they are sensory or emotional, short-term or long-term, material or
immaterial are fundamental to our existence as individuals and as collective societies. As we
reflect on alternative pathways towards sustainable and equitable water access, use and
governance, and SDGs implementation, WAMU-NET invites contributions that recall our water
memories stressing the emotional side that water stirs: joy / struggle / life & death / respect /
sacred / profane, etc.
Contributions, including photographs, archival images and artworks, will only be accepted from
WAMU-NET members (individuals, artists and museums) and must be submitted digitally by
December, 20 2021 by completing the Registration Form available HERE
(https://www.watermuseums.net/wp-content/uploads/2021/11/IRW-Registration-Form-with-
Terms-and-Conditions.docx).
