Hydrographies is a new book that brings together artists, filmmakers, activists, writers and scholars to examine the political, ecological, and cosmological dimensions of rivers, oceans, and wetlands through contemporary visual art and moving-image practices.
The book explores water as sustenance, border, weapon, and witness, reimagining hydrography as a fluid cartography of shared struggles and transnational solidarities. Through essays, conversations and artistic contributions
Hydrographies attempts to address colonial infrastructures, hydropolitics, submerged histories, ancestral knowledge, ecological grief and cinematic imagination.
Featuring contributions by Mathieu Kleyebe Abonnenc, Alia Farid, Adelita Husni Bey, Ailton Krenak, Naeem Mohaiemen, Laura Huertas Millán, and many others, Hydrographies offers a compelling interdisciplinary perspective on water and power.
