Talking about water is talking about life, an essential element. In our Mediterranean territory, it is also talking about scarcity, as it has always been and even more so today.
Water for humanity has meant work and culture: searching for it, storing it, manipulating it, studying its chemistry, biology, and that of those who live in it, the space it occupies, and also what it modifies. It also represents mysticism, rituals to welcome life, to cleanse souls, seeking gods who provide and saints who protect in the face of its immensity and sometimes uncontrollable strength. Its importance has been reflected throughout history in different societies and preserved in the world of knowledge and the arts. When we talk about water, personal and collective sensations, memories, and experiences come to mind.
All of this motivated the Joies Sensacionals collective to work on the exhibition TOWARDS THE WATER, to share our thoughts, reflections, and concerns, to each develop pieces with their own creative language, and to see where the water takes us.
