Liquidity Trap

multiplayer time-based game and projection mapping

Water is at the core of sustainable progress and is critical for socioeconomic development, healthy ecosystems and for human survival itself. As the physical world of water is closely bound up with the sociopolitical world, water often is a key factor in managing risks such as famine, epidemics, inequalities and political instability. Meanwhile, daily personal use of water is characterised by frivolous unawareness. "Liquidity Trap" is an immersive installation which embodies this dilemma, and gives a glimpse into a global crisis radiating from this often overlooked yet indispensable resource.
