“Thirst should not be looked at as a negative experience.It creates a want and a desire which is unique. What we perform in the space between fulfillment and thirst is such that many great things happen.”

“It is hard to think of an exhibition that allows anyone and everyone such direct involvement, that grows with every little tributary and can present itself in so many different ways.Like its subject, there is nothing static about this museum; it is a moving (in every sense) illumination of what it is to be human. We are, of course, mostly water, and perhaps that’s where our ties to each other – our humanity – reside.”
Visitor to Museum of Water
“Museum of Water is a subtle and profound work, taking us on a journey that starts with sipping from a glass of water and ends with pondering our relationship with our planet.”

“Water is the force that flows through birth, love, loss, home, holidays, danger, adventure and grief. It is life, death and all the washing up in between. Which is what you want from a museum – the whole of human life. Bottled.”
