Hydropunk is an interactive installation created in collaboration with the public, where water takes centre-stage. Taps, valves, pipes, pumps, sprays, and leaks come together to form a chaotic, yet playful water machine full of games and puzzles, all fed by a central reservoir.
But there’s a twist: Hydropunk is also a striking environmental metaphor. With only 1000 litres of water to play with, once it’s gone, it’s gone! To keep the fun flowing, participants must work together to conserve and recycle water, engaging in a constant challenge against waste and leakage.
Relaxed Hour (REL) – Our access hosts will be on hand to support you during the first hour of the day, from 12-1pm.
Hydropunk is supported by Without Walls and commissioned by Stockton International Riverside Festival, Birmingham Weekender, Brighton Festival, and Norfolk & Norwich Festival. Made in collaboration with Tenderfoot Theatre.
