A world where water is life. Two little drops of water appear on a boat with
nothing but each other and a questionable bag of trash.

‘Omi ti to’ the Yoruba words for ‘water is enough’. When the world views where you are
from, like a dumping ground, how do you respond? Influenced by places like Makoko
in Nigeria from the dreamy and wise perspective of two little girls allowing room
for imagination. These two little girls understand using what they have is only
preserving the water.

‘Omi ti to’ is inspired by the quote “It’s not rubbish, nor salvaged materials, it’s
the utensils of creation” by West African artist Joseph Francis Sumégné. ‘Omi Ti To’
is a poetic mix media piece with elements of stop motion that values old fabrics,
cardboard boxes, egg cartons, jar lids, plastic bottles, and the well being of
water.
