It was dry and hot in Malaysia, a time when the authority has to impose restriction on the usage of water. I couldn't help but felt a little frustrated every time I turned the tap and discovered only tiny bit of water drops came out. The inspiration came when I was expecting water drops but water in full strength came rushing out.

Time to pay my old plumber friend a visit. When I told him about the concept, he blinked and looked at me as though flowers grown on my head. However, he did find me the water tap to my description.

I painted my hands white and have to set the timer to obtain the shot. I must say it was very challenging.
