Glu Glu Jar

Glu Glu Jar

Throughout the course of the hydro play tour, the Glu Glu Jug served both as a water provider and a water receiver for the various games that were played. The fish-shaped Gluggle Jugs that were manufactured in Staffordshire, UK, in the late 1870s served as inspiration for the creation of this particular jug, which makes a 'glu-glu' sound whenever the water contained within it moves from one chamber to the other.

This object was developed the Hidro-Playtour for Reconcile Water Commons, a project created by Space Transcribers and Álvaro Domingues integrated within Fertile Futures, Official Portuguese Representation at the 18th International Architecture Exhibition – La Biennale di Venezia, curated by Andreia Garcia, and deputy curators Ana Neiva and Diogo Aguiar. https://fertilefutures.pt/en/
