International Deadline: June 5, 2024 – Our blue planet is not that blue anymore. In addition to deforestation and air pollution, our water systems have been significantly impacted by our everyday actions. We only have a few more years left to reach the UN Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs), and there is still so much to be done, including SDG 6 “Clean Water and Sanitation”. Water is at the core of sustainable development and is critical for socio-economic development, healthy ecosystems, and human survival itself.
Climate change is our generation’s reality. Rising temperatures will continue to contribute to water scarcity across the world. So responsible water usage is essential for ensuring there’s enough water for our and future generations.
Project H2O is our collective attempt to accelerate awareness and call for meaningful and impactful action through the use of art.
PROJECT H2O PARTICIPATION REQUIREMENTS
Participation is open to all artists above the age of 18 from across the world.
Put your creativity into action to help generate more awareness around clean water scarcity, importance of wastewater management and the overall state of our water resources and ways to clean them up.
Create a 4×6 inch (~10 x 15 cm) postcard-sized original miniature artwork with a water theme or component aligning with the purpose of Project H2O. Water can be interpreted in many ways, from color to the use of various shapes, textures, and materials, socio-cultural implications, and more. While creating your work, think of your own water footprint. What is it? What would your life be without water? How can your artwork help us create awareness on the state of our water sources? How could it inspire and encourage responsible water usage?
