Description:Images of photograph and watercolor collages depicting hydrants, water pipes, and other water infrastructure. Spiral binding. 28 pages. Edition 1 of 3. "Water hydrants, water connections "float" or "fly" as symbols of life on the book pages, embody salvation from dying, burning and danger. Water as a connecting saving element, put together in networks, the water pipes cover land and continents, always to the point for the employment of the fire-brigade, which stands symbolically for rescue." -- the artist's website
