| Signage: | Drawing from everyday life in his community, the artist shows how people shared a single communal tap. Community members waited in long queues to fetch water and wash clothes. The tap became a shared space of daily survival. The work highlights struggles faced by Black communities, particularly mothers, with limited access to basic resources. |
