Water, and the lack thereof, is the defining element of the Australian landscape. Its uses and abuses have had a crucial role in shaping Australian society. It's been pumped up from below the earth, held in dams, piped over the landscape and even dragged down from the clouds. In the process we have destroyed ecologies, built communities and created a new Australia.
The exhibition Just Add Water tells stories of Australians and our relations with water. In an exciting and interactive space, people will engage with the topic on a social, scientific and ecological level, as well as an emotional one. This timely exhibition encompasses a subject that impacts on everyone.
See the education resources for Just Add Water – document studies for secondary students.
The Just Add Water Journal, based on the exhibition, is also available for sale.
