My art installation “DON’T WASTE WATER, TURN OFF TAPS” at MUMBAI BOOK FAIR 2013

As we know, “A drop of water is worth more than a sack of gold to a thirsty man”, but most people have the habit of leaving the tap running when they brush their teeth; do the dishes or even when they have to come out of the bathroom halfway through a shower to answer the phone.

Such imprudence not only causes unnecessary water wastage but can also be costly with faucet and water meter working over time.

Today’s extreme water crisis in Maharashtra has prompted us to save every single drop of water. If we fail to conserve water, eventually an adequate, healthy water supply may not be available in the future.

TURN OF TAPS is a reminder for all of us to put off the tap when not in use.

‘Tap the flow, avoid big blow’

Tap running but no one is bothering
