Every time I refill my water bottles, I think about how fortunate I am to have pretty clean water. I think about how 96% of the world’s water is carried by women. I think about the millions of women and girls around the world who walk an average of 4 miles a day to bring water to their families, water that very often is not clean. I think of the health risks they face of head, neck and spinal injuries and of being without water for days at a time. Most of them are women of color in Africa, India, and even Flint Michigan. I hope this art piece brings attention to their plight.
