This is a two-part project. During August 2020, we invited children and parents to design and build their own weaponry of water war, and then join us to mark the end of summer with an epic water battle royale and games on the beach. Artist Pete Casby’s online videos, showed how to make your own super soakers using waste and materials that were easily to hand. 

The idea was to repurpose waste and only use materials that were to hand in order to make a water-war weaponry or machinery – old pipes, a bicycle pump you never used or a bucket you couldn’t visualise as a high capacity component of some yet-to-be-built hydro-ballistic weapon.

Water should not be wasted, collect rain-water as much as possible.
