Introduced by the drawings of the architect, the pavilion uses water as a metaphor for the necessity of not only rethinking these systems, but also acting upon them in order to ensure more just and ecologically regenerative future. It attempts to permanently install a water retention system for capturing and redistributing rainwater in the pavilion itself.
