Over the course of five years, Canadian Edward Burtynsky (b. 1955) traveled across the globe, from the Gulf of Mexico to the shore of the Ganges, while weaving together an ambitious representation of water’s ever more fragmented lifecycle. In colorful aerial images, many bordering on the edge of complete abstraction, Burtynsky traces the various roles that water plays in modern life; as a source of healthy ecosystems and energy, as a key element in cultural and religious ritual, and as a rapidly depleting resource.
