The news headlines today said eight more councils have been "drought declared". Ironically it was raining at the time
Here are three ideas that roll into one, quite nicely.
1. I know of thousands of square metres of vacant public "art space" in Brisbane. - water tanks.
2.Not an original idea, it is from NYC, have a look at "think Tanks" here is the link think tanks new york. Heaps of famous artists in New York have
been commissioned to illustrate the water tanks of the city to draw
attention to the issue of water in New York and in the world.
3. I am really proud of the way Brisbane minded it's water in the
last big drought. Everyone knew how much water their household used,
having that brown lawn was a badge of honour. It was the talk around the
dinner party table. I think the folks of Brisbane really proved that
if we all pull together we can achieve something, even if it means
personal sacrifices. Remember the four minute showers, level four water
restrictions.
Let's do this, there are so many great little graphic design firms
and artists in Brisbane. Let's show off our water awareness through
some funky art and illustration and grafitti.
