Giant Water Bucket


When people view this piece, they believe that it is just a huge water bucket, but there is so much more to it. The City of New Delhi is running out of water so this symbolizes the need to conserve more water. This piece also highlights the challenges in preserving India's ecological heritage amid rapid urban development. Public art is shrinking in the 
city, and the artists are trying to reclaim and reengage in it through art. They broke through prevailing social, cultural and political barriers to bring contemporary art out of the elitists, even if it is through a giant water bucket
