This piece is created as part of the Frank Water Collaboration Collection. “Weight of the world” is inspired by women who carry water every day for their families and communities. It depicts a strong woman, striding out, purposefully, carrying an enormous pot on her head. The responibility for collecting and managing water falls heavily on the shoulders of women and girls in these communities. Like all of us, they are reliant on water but unlike us, it is not just available from a near reach to a tap. This piece reminds us how lucky we are to have such a precious resource so easily available and celebrates the strength of women and girls over the world who are not so fortunate.
