WEIGHT of WATER is a
multi-media meditation
on toxicity and trust
inspired by the impact of
groundwater contamination
in the Philadelphia
metropolitan region.
Originating with the
singular stories of
citizens whose lives
have been disrupted,
WEIGHT of WATER
explores the
uncomfortable irony of
destroying a village
in order to defend it.
The imagery + sound is,
from time to time,
unsettling.
