Portable River Installation by Luzinterruptus through the streets of Caracas, Venezuela

The installation consisted of 2,000 transparent bags that were each filled, not just with water, but with life. Each bag was like a small aquarium, housing fish and plants as well as tiny lights. Says the artist: “We wanted to bring a river of water to the center of Caracas because there, it is normal to see it overflowing the streets every time it rains. We wanted to stop it for one night so that people could sit down and admire its beauty and perhaps, think about the value of this element, essential to life and the challenge presented in bringing it closer to the citizens, especially in the big cities. At the end of the night, visitors were encouraged to take these mini ecosystems, converting the still river, into another that quickly circulated around the city, in the hands of children and adults who wanted to take them to their homes.”
