Collaboration with Haseeb on pharmaceutical pollution

5/10/2021

We are very excited to announce that in the framework of the European S+T+ARTS4Water project, artist Haseeb Ahmed has been selected for the “Pharmaceutical Pollution” residency. This highly collaborative residency is hosted by GLUON and LUCA School of Arts with the support of Pollet Water Group

“There is a poetry in the modern paradox that pharmaceuticals save lives but are too small to filter in conventional treatment plants, potentially harming the environment. This is especially true in Flanders, a leader in pharmaceuticals whose landscape is defined by extensive waterways. Over the course of my residency I will work with regional experts to create an artwork that brings together the scale of the body and landscape making this connection tangible for viewers and the process too will be made public.” Haseeb Ahmed

What is S+T+ARTS4Water?
S+T+ARTS is an initiative of the European Commission to foster alliances between science, technology, and the arts, in order to cultivate technological innovation centered on human needs and values. Bringing together art, technology and science, the pilot project STARTS4water aims to tackle one of the most pressing challenges of our times: water management.

What is the goal of this residency?
This highly collaborative S+T+ARTS residency is bringing together diverse stakeholders with expertise in wastewater treatment, digital technology, health care, biodiversity, environmental engineering, environmental chemistry and aquatic ecology, working towards the design of new measures to reduce pollution and to encompass the entire life cycle of biodegradable “greener pharmaceuticals”.

Who is the artist?
Haseeb Ahmed is a research-based artist originally from the US, and now based in Brussels. He produces objects, site-specific installations, films, and writes. Often working collaboratively, Ahmed integrates methodologies from the hard sciences into his art production. Over the last 10 years Ahmed has structured his research-based artistic practice around fluid dynamics of wind and water.

Who supports this residency?
This residency is supported by Pollet Water Group, Pharma.be, Inopsys, Vlakwa, VITO, Surplace and Capture-UGhent. The results of the residency will be shown in Bozar – Centre for Fine Arts (Brussels), during the STARTS4Water exhibition in Fall 2022

Water Arena

29/9/2021

End of September we had another inspiring refreshing meeting of the Water Arena where PWG is a member.
One takeaway challenge is how we could encourage and increase the water citizenship, by which we mean the involvement of a consumer towards the water they use. For many people water starts to exist when we open the tap and stops when it is flushed through the sink. They don’t know where it comes from, where it goes to, how precious it is and how we need to value it.

There is a need for a consumer HABIT CHANGE.
This is an important challenge where PWG want to commit to.

The waterarena was inspired by the successful campaigns from the past of which we can learn something for the water challenge.

How the BOB-campaign in Belgium succeeded in 15 years time to create a generation that is very convinced that driving and drinking does not go together.
How the regulated smoking ban in bars and public domains succeeded in a couple of years to change the public perception of something normal to something which is not done.
How the measurements that ban our freedom this much where to be accepted cause it is about our health and the health of our loved ones, cause we are all involved and because science and knowledge are at the basis of the decisions made.

With thanks to our co-arenamembers!
