The exhibition 'Vibrant Waters' deals with the relational and material complexity of water. On view are artistic positions that question a utilization and exploitation-influenced understanding of the element as a ‘resource’ and thematize, as they do so, its historical and also present-day consumption for producing images. In addition, 'Vibrant Waters' shows works that look into water’s binding quality and cause bodies of water to appear as living entities.
